significantly assist cities and counties in meeting the solid waste
diversion goals set for 1995 and the year 2000, by Section 41780.
   (3) Source reduction and recycling programs in the schools will
also educate children on the importance of these activities, and will
teach them waste management skills that will last throughout their
lives.
   (b) The Legislature, therefore, declares that school districts
throughout the state should be assisted in establishing and
implementing source reduction and recycling programs.

source reduction and recycling programs.

   (g) Providing assistance to school districts in locating markets
for their reusable or recyclable materials.
   (h) Disseminating information to school districts on office

districts developed pursuant to Section 42621 shall, to the extent
feasible, be designed to complement and further the educational goals
of the supplementary educational materials developed pursuant to
