Join Us in the NexTrex Recycling Challenge!
Dear Families and Community Members,
We are excited to announce that our school is participating in the NexTrex Recycling Challenge! This program is a wonderful opportunity for us to teach our students about the importance of recycling and environmental stewardship.
Our goal is to collect 1,000 pounds of clean plastic materials, which will then be recycled by Trex Company. If we reach our goal, Trex will reward our efforts by sending us a beautiful, durable bench made from recycled materials—a perfect addition to our school!
Here's how you can help:
- Collect eligible plastics: Please bring in clean, dry plastic bags, wraps, and films. This includes items like grocery bags, bread bags, case overwrap, dry cleaning bags, and more. See the 'flyer' for specifics!
- Spread the word: Share this challenge with friends, family, and neighbors. The more plastic we collect, the closer we get to reaching our goal!
- Drop-off locations: Bring plastics into the cafeteria bin or up to the 7/8 wing in Mr. Psaros' and Ms. Krembs's rooms.
Let's work together to reach our 1,000-pound goal and earn that recycled bench for our school! Your support is most appreciated in making this challenge a success. Thank you for your commitment to our school and the environment. We look forward to seeing what we can achieve together!
Best,
Mr. Psaros and Ms. Krembs
