Winton Woods Elementary Recycling Club “Upcycles” Juice Bags
TerraCycle Include USA
Fourth grade students at Winton Woods Elementary School are helping the environment through the school’s Recycling Club.
In addition to recycling cans and paper throughout the building, students recently took on the sticky job of bundling recycled juice bags to send to Terracycle, a company whose goal is to make the non-recyclable recyclable. The juice bags will be “upcycled” into school products like pencil bags, totes and backpacks.
The school receives 20 cents for every bundle of 10 bags, and a recent bundling session earned $34 for the school.
