Recycling Opportunity! ๐๐
Hello Parents!
Interested in helping our environment? Do you enjoy organizing and planning? Well, then I have a volunteer job for you!! I'm seeking parents who would be interested in fulfilling a school wide passion project to help the City of Austin reach a goal to be a zero waste city by 2040.
We would begin this project by collecting clean and dry plastic grocery bags in a designated container one neighborhood grade level at a time. Once the time period is over to collect them, they would then be turned into a local recycling center.
If this is something you would be interested in, please contact me at: Tiffany.Horton2@leanderisd.org. Thank you! More information to come soon!
ART SUPPLY NEED ๐ง๐ปโ๐จ
The Art Room is in desperate need of Clorox Wipes and paper towels.
If you would like to donate it would be greatly appreciated!
THANK YOU!
