The AES Green Team is already working on initiatives to maintain and improve our Maryland Green School.  This school year, we will continue our Elmer's Glue Crew empty glue stick collection.  During the past few school years, we have collected between 1,500 and 2,000 empty glue sticks per year, sending them off for upcycling and keeping them out of our landfills.  They are then turned into something else, like a park bench or a school carpet.  What's more, our school receives 2 cents for every glue stick we send to Terracycle.  (That's where the "jingle" comes in.)  This year, we will collect glue sticks in Pringles chip cans.  Each classroom will have a can, which will be covered to look like a giant glue stick!  We need your help.  If you have empty Pringles cans to donate to the school, please send them in with your child to be delivered to Mrs. Young.  We would like to begin this year's glue stick collection as soon as possible, so send in your cans as you use them.  Thank you so much for your assistance.
