Recycling Program Begins

Well, we finally kicked off the Recycle Rally for this year! The Leadership class organized the assembly for the student body complete with pictures and information, a student produced recycling public service announcement and some "Minute to Win It" games for advisory classes. All in all, the word is out and the work begins.

We are now competing through April 12th against schools across the country for "green" cash and prizes. We hope to win one of the large cash prizes of $10,000 or $50,000. This could go a long way in greening up our campus.  One of our goals is to pass the word to other schools in our district about the benefits of recycling in hopes that they, too, will become involved.

We want to continue to make a meaningful impact on our communities and show that although we are small in number, we are large in heart and strength. As our students have witnessed in years passed, it takes only one person to make a difference.
