Green Team Recycling Tips for December:
The Green Team would like to wish everyone Happy Holidays. With all the gift giving there is also a lot of WASTE. Think about how you can reduce your footprint by giving gifts with less plastic packaging. Although wrapping paper, bows and ribbons are beautiful and festive, they create a whole lot of garbage. Most wrapping paper isn't recyclable.
Be GREEN this season and give gifts with the planet in mind!
If you want to receive a school directory, you must be a PTSA member. We welcome your support - thank you!
