Earth Day Challenge – March 1 – April 13
All RCS K-8 students are participating in the 2012 Earth Day Challenge sponsored by the Kent County Recycling Center. From March 1 -April 13, students are asked to bring "paperboard" boxes to school. These boxes would include cereal, cracker, granola bar, etc. type boxes. Please break these boxes down and flatten them out, then place your donation in the large box in the RCS lobby. No cardboard juice or ice cream boxes since those items are not recyclable. Our school's goal is 3,000 boxes!!! Thanks for your help!!! As of today's date, RCS has collected over 2,600 boxes!!! Let's keep it going!!!!!
