Recycling Began August 30!!!

 

We recycle aluminum cans and newspapers ONLY.  Recycling days are MONDAYS, TUESDAYS, AND WEDNESDAYS ONLY.   This is a class competition!!!  The class with the most recycled items gets a reward at the end of the year!!!!

 

We are also collecting pull-tabs off aluminum cans.  These are for the Ronald McDonald House and are NOT part of the recycling competition.

            Silly Band Alert!!!

 

From Mrs. Young:

 

I realize that Silly Bands are a fun, new fad.  Many children are becoming distracted by them at school.  I am asking children to NOT wear them to school on a daily basis.  We may have a special Silly Band Day now and then as a celebration of academic success.  If a teacher sees a child with Silly Bands, I have asked them to please collect them and place them in a ziplock bag with the child’s name until the end of the semester.

 

Thank You for your Support!
