The Art of Recycling!

Funded Dec 9, 2018

Your generosity has truly made an impact for the recycling initiative we have begun here at PS 272 in Brooklyn. For the first year ever, we have a "Green Team," which has been flooded with applications for students expressing interest in helping recycling to be done with fidelity. What initially started as an idea to just get recyclable materials to be separated from trash and organic waste in the cafeteria has spread throughout the entire school - classrooms, common areas, and offices! We recently increased our efforts to reduce plastic pollution by purchasing compostable bags to be placed in the classrooms to reduce the number of plastic bags ending up in landfills!”

With gratitude,

Mr. Masterson
