Hello Parents,

Longfellow has had a “Friday Recycling” program for many, many years.  Members of our school’s community bring bottles and cans to school on Friday before school, and they are sorted by parent volunteers and turned into money for our school.  We would love to get started with Friday Recycling as soon as possible, but we currently only have a few volunteers signed up.  The commitment involves coming to sort recyclables in the bike cage (north side of the auditorium) from approximately 7:45am until 8:30am, once every 6 to 8 weeks.  Parent volunteers recycle in groups of 2 to 4 people, so it is a great way to meet other parents at Longfellow and get to know more about what is going on at our wonderful school.  If you are interested in being a part of this program, please email Heather Morrison at Longfellowgreenteam@gmail.com and let us know.  The sooner we have enough volunteers, the sooner we can start keeping track of the kids who bring in recycling by putting their names in for our Friday Recycling prize raffle during flag ceremonies.

 

Thanks very much!
