In Athletic Study Hall after school, one of the clubs decided to sell snacks as a fundraiser for the club. The students in Athletic Study Hall were very excited because they get to buy snacks after school, especially since they are quite hungry! This is an awesome fundraiser for the club and a huge benefit to the students, but the disadvantage is that when they leave, there are wrappers and food on the floor and tables, despite being told by us adults every day to clean up after themselves. Sometimes they leave before we could have them pick up their trash. 
I decided today to speak to the groups and collaborate with them and we found a solution that can be implemented and if followed, will fully satisfy both groups! The solution was that the athletes can purchase and enjoy delicious snacks during athletic study hall and they will pick up their trash and throw them into the garbage cans without us having to remind them several times. The students agreed to this solution, and we adults were amazed today at how clean the tables and floor were. They reminded one another about picking up and throwing their trash. Part of the solution was that if the students didn't follow through, they will not be allowed to purchase treats anymore. 
I'm very excited about this win-win solution, and I am looking forward to great results!
