Let the recycling begin!

Mercedes delivered the storage containers for our collected recyclables in mid-October, and we could officially begin our recycling program!  Environmental science students delivered a "plastic" bin and a "paper" bin to every classroom in the school.  The environmental science classes pick up the collected recyclables every Thursday.

"It's apparent that a lot of trash is generated every day at Brookwood High School.  After only two weeks of collecting paper and plastic from each classroom, our storage containers were completely full!  I'm proud that students and faculty at BHS are all doing their part to help the environment by recycling what they can." - Ms. Barringer, Environmental Science Teacher and Green Team Advisor
