An Oregon Green School Paper Recycling Weekly we collect recycled paper from classrooms.
Recycling bins are in each classroom, workroom and the office.
Every Friday the recycle team picks up paper and hauls it to a central collection point. After all the paper has been collected, we count the amount of ledger, mixed paper, and newpaper bags we have. These are charted and the weight is calculated. We then calculate how many trees we saved that week by recycling. Our formula is that it takes 1 tree to make 118 pounds of paper.
