Help our school become better at trash and recycling collection!

Important:

Containers need to be clean and EMPTY

(if ice or liquids are present, it becomes trash along with what that item contaminated)

12 of 42

Help our school remain clean!

Pick up your trash and your school mates trash during lunch and at all times

Put up chairs in 6th and 7th period classes (this saves time and effort during floor cleanings)

Wipe off desks when they appear dirty

Be mindful of what goes in the trash and recycling containers! Help educate others when you see something that should be changed.
