Havens Elementary Students Help Make Recycling Easier

Have you ever wondered which bin to throw your trash in after lunch? There’s blue and green and black. Sometimes brown or light blue.

Mr. Taylor had been relentless in his mission to help our students recycle properly. He led our February service event by showing the kids how to make the bins more user friendly. Students sorted the trash and made sample signs including the containers from Choicelunch and other common trash items. Now, students can see which bins should house which kind of trash or recyclable goods. Soon every bin at school will have a picture copy of these 3-dimensional signs, a lasting contribution to our school environment.
