In honor of America Recycles Day, we're reminding students, families, and community members about the importance of recycling at home. Recycling conserves resources, saves energy, and reduces landfill waste. ♻️ Here’s a quick tip: Keep recycling simple by labeling bins and flattening boxes. You have the power to make a positive impact!
