During the first 9 weeks, Mrs. Alonso's third grade class has been busy with math, reading, science, and Terracycling? That's right! It all started with a simple birthday party that served Capri Sun juice drinks. 3rd grader Quinton Phelan asked his teacher if he could collect the drink pouches to Terracycle. Mrs. Alonso and her class agreed and pitched in, not once, but twice already!
The EJSHS Green Team is a member of the Terracycle Juice Pouch Brigade which donates $.02 to the school for every pouch turned in. The class' donation got the Green Team closer to its goal of 500 pouches.
To show their appreciation, the Green Team presented the class with Terracycle bag, made completely out of 'upcycled' Capri Sun juice pouches. That way, when they collect in the future, they can store the pouches in the bag made out of pouches!!
Way to go guys!
