It’s April and that means it’s Earth month! The Highcrest PTO Environmental Awareness Committee suspects that you are doing a great job reducing plastic, but if you’ve still got some plastic bags, good news.. you can now upcycle them in our lobby! Simply review the types of bags being collected in the attached list and you or your child can drop off CLEAN bags in the box in the Highcrest lobby. We will be collecting these clean plastic bags through the end of the school year. Thanks for helping keep the environment beautiful for our students, families and communities!

In assemblies with our students, Greg shared his story and discussed some of the seemingly small, oftentimes overlooked ways that kids can extend the positive impact they make at school and in the community. more >>
