RECYCLING FOR OUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE

Did you know that you can recycle newspaper, magazines, shopping catalogs and mail 24 hours/7days a week at our school? Our Recycle Bin is doing very well for us.  Please remember to send or bring your newspapers, magazines and junk mail to school or to Church on Sunday when you come.  This is a way to not only help the school but also our environment.  Less trees will be cut down and less space needed for landfill. The papers, etc. may be put into the yellow and green dumpster at anytime.

Did you also know that our school earns money for paper dropped off at the green and yellow "Paper Retriever" bin on our campus?

This is an easy way for you to recycle household paper and help us raise money for projects like playground equipment, books and computers.

Please remember to bring your paper to school and drop it in the "Paper Retriever"

Remember we are also collecting, old cell phones, ink cartridges  and Acme tapes

 

Thank you for your continues support.
