Paper ♻️
Our School is deeply invested in practicing the 3 R's of Waste Management through our paper recycling program. We recycle paper through Wake County Solid Wasre Management Divsion's Feed the Bin program. Between the 2011-2012 and 2015-2016 school years, Lynn Road Elementary has recycled 31,141 pounds of paper. After learning that it takes approximately 2 1/2 gallons of water to produce one sheet of paper, our school has stepped up our paper reduction plan by collecting paper with one side copied to reuse for printing, writing and art work. Since construction paper cannot be recycled, we collect scraps to reuse for our beautiful environmental art projects.
