Got Dried Markers?
Last year, the TAC and Green Team collected 8.5 pounds of dried markers that were recycled and sent back to Crayola to be repurposed. Thank you to all of you for contributing to this upcycling project. We will continue recycling them this year. Boxes will be placed in the pods and ArtRoom for this purpose in the following weeks. Thank you!
