It’s An Adventure!
Going back to school this year will be an experience unlike any other. Let’s consider it an adventure. An adventure in how to stay safe with masks and distancing, if attending school in person. And an adventure if going to school online in a safe and special part of the house or apartment; a quiet place to learn.
For back-to-school supplies, whether safely attending in person or online, please look for education-related products that are either recyclable or made from recycled material. Plus, if you have some stuff from last year, reuse it rather than throwing it away. Or, you could pass it down or pass it on. Another learning experience for this year, particularly for school children in the 3rd-7th grades, is to practice recycling with empty plastic bottles and jugs, mixed paper, cardboard, and empty aluminum, tin, and steel cans. They all go in your curbside recycling cart. It can be an everyday family experience.
Stay safe, stay smart, and learn more.
