Brick Students Give Lessons On Upcycling For Earth Week

BRICK, NJ — If you're looking for ways you can reuse more items and reduce the amount of trash you throw out, the eighth-graders at Brick's Lake Riviera Middle School have some ideas for you.

The science classes have been taking part in Brick Township's Upcycling Program, which invites all of the district's schools and students to create something with a purpose from old, discarded items that no longer have use or value.

The projects have been on display at various locations, including at Ocean Medical Center last week and they were on display Saturday during the Green Fair at Brick Township High School.

The students' projects will be on display at Town Hall all this week as well.

For more information on recycling and the Upcycle Program, you can contact Township Recycling Coordinator Trish Totaro at 732-451-4066.
