Recycling Programs: Bring these items from home and deposit in the designated containers at Burroughs.

TerraCycle Drink & Snack Pouches

• TerraCycle prevents pouches like Capri Sun, Honest Kids & GoGo Squeeze from taking up space in landfills. Our fantastic lunch volunteers help kids recycle them daily; recycle the ones you sip at home too, cap and all! The bin is located outside the lunchroom. (Just make sure to empty out any unused product first). And a bonus: TerraCycle donates $.01-.02 for each pouch we submit. Sip on that.

Used cell phones and ink cartridges

• Bring in your used ink cartridges (not refurbished) and old cell phones and drop in the specially marked bin at the bottom of the stairs. We'll recycle them and earn $3 each. Good for the environment, good for Burroughs!

Markers

• Used and dried up markers can be kept out of our waste stream as well. Drop them in the marked container at the bottom of the main staircase.

We appreciate your continued support of Burroughs Community School and all the EZ Buck$ programs.

Thank you!
