Recycled Paper Fundraiser
EPA is Going Green!
Here's how you can help:
Put recyclable paper into the big green and yellow bin at the end of the exit lane by Manchaca Road (in paper bags not plastic). We also earn money for every pound of paper we collect! Heavier paper is better!
More paper = more funds for the school.
Do put these in the bin:
- Clean paper
- Junk mail
- Newspaper (especially)
- Old schoolwork
- Magazines (especially)
These items are not allowed:
- Cardboard
- Cereal/soda cartons
- Food wrap/containers
- Tissue products
- Phone books
- Plastic
- Glass
