Georgetown Recycles Batteries

In our effort to be GREEN, we are now offering battery recycling at Georgetown.  Mr. Rob, our head custodian, is responsible for setting this up for our school community.  He has placed a battery recycling container in the entrance of the building.

We will continue to offer paper recycling with the Paper Gator, located in the front parking lot.  As a school community, our fifth grade students assist in the recycling of our paper each week.   We are excited to add battery recycling to our mission of being a GREEN SCHOOL.

This is a great way to make a donation to our school PTC. 

Paper Gator: Don’t forget to fill the Paper Gator.  If the bin is full, please don’t leave your recyclable paper outside!  It blows and creates a mess for Mr. Rob to deal with.  Thank you for your attention to this.
