The Webb Schools' Foodnomics chapter, led by Mary Li, has achieved exceptional results in reducing food waste across both lunch and dinner services. Mary's systematic approach to data collection and student engagement has created one of the most consistent chapters in the Foodnomics network.

Starting in September 2024, The Webb Schools recorded significant food waste levels with lunch averaging $277.75 and dinner averaging $310.90. Through persistent awareness campaigns and strategic use of the Foodnomics app, Mary has led her school to impressive reductions across the full academic year.

Outstanding achievements at The Webb Schools include:

1. Remarkable lunch improvements: 37.8% reduction from September ($277.75) to May ($172.70)
2. Consistent dinner progress: 42.2% reduction from September ($310.90) to May ($179.60)
3. Sustained momentum: Achieved reductions in 8 out of 9 months for both meal periods
4. Exceptional cost savings: Combined monthly reduction of over $230 in food waste
5. Leadership excellence: Maintained consistent engagement throughout the full academic year

Mary Li's leadership at The Webb Schools demonstrates how dedicated student leadership can create lasting institutional change while generating significant cost savings and environmental benefits. Her nearly 40% average reduction across both lunch and dinner services represents one of the strongest overall performances in the Foodnomics network.
