Georgetown Jr.-Sr. High School Seventh Graders at Work Recycling

Perianne Germann , Georgetown


Seventh graders accomplished the distribution of the new recycle containers throughout the high school, as they complete their weekly recycling, normally once a week during study lab. The new plastic containers replaced the old cardboard ones and are much easier to keep clean. The plastic containers are for aluminum cans and plastic recyclables and were provided through the Adams Brown Recycling Station.

Mrs. Susan Noll is pictured with the seventh grade volunteers, receiving the new container for her Spanish classroom. In the photo, from left to right, are Madeline Braunstein, Kylie Watson, Allison Smith, Shayne Jones and Kaylen McClaren.

The “Achievers,” part of the Learn and Serve Ohio program, have “host responsibility” for the seventh grade efforts and work with them to reinforce the importance of recycling with the younger students. As volunteers, the Achievers prove that “actions speak louder than words.”
