Remember to have your child bring in their Recycling Scavenger Hunt bag with their name on it by this Friday to be entered into a drawing for a Dairy Queen gift certificate!
Here are some common questions parents have been asking about the recycling program.
My child already brought in their bag, but we forgot to put their name on it. Does this mean they can’t be entered into the drawing?
They can still be entered into the drawing if you write a note listing the item they brought in and their name and teacher’s name. Put it in the green recycling bin and we’ll enter them into the drawing.
We lost the scavenger hunt bag that was sent home. Can we still send in an item on the list and be entered into the drawing?
Absolutely :) Send your item in any bag you can find and make sure your child’s name and teacher’s name is on the bag. A scavenger hunt list is to the right to remind you what we’re collecting to raise funds for P.I.E.’s programs. Remember, more recycling money raised=less fundraising needed.
We don’t have any of the items on the list. Are there other items we can bring in that aren’t on the list?
Unfortunately the only items we can recycle and raise funds for P.I.E. are on the list. Share your list with family, neighbors, co-workers & friends. Ask your employer what they do with their old inkjet or laster cartridges or old cell phones when they get new ones.
We’d like to donate an old laptop, but we’re worried
You can remove the whole hard drive from your laptop, please leave in the hard drive “holder” it plugs into. We’ll still receive the same amount of money if the hard drive is removed. (I can remove it for you. If you’re unsure how to do it, leave a note on it.)
Thanks for all the great questions!
