OCTOBER RECYCLING ROUND UP:
Last week, Keep Smyrna Beautiful presented to a group K2 grade at St. John the Baptist hybrid school. We talked
about what happens when you throw something “away”
and discussed the difference between a trash (landfill),
compost, and recycling. The students participated in a
hands-on sorting activity to determine where common
lunch items would go.
