AMES ELEMENTARY'S RECYCLING PROGRAM

 AMES ELEMENTARY'S RECYCLING PROGRAM

The school plans to begin recycling in October. With the help of Casella's Waste Management, we will have a zero-sort recycling dumpster, meaning we can add anything they can recycle into one bin. 

It began as a service learning project for Mr. Jacques' 4th-grade class last year.
