Community Clean Up Day

Description

 

Join us on the 3rd Saturday of each month to help the PTA, Dads Club and many other booster clubs spruce up the school!  In addition to walking the grounds and picking up trash, there are many other things to accomplish during our monthly Clean Up Day.   Please come prepared to work hard and take the lead on any of the projects listed below.

The forecast for Saturday is calling for sticky and hot weather, so be sure to come with plenty of water and ready to sweat!

     Below is a list of the projects we intend to tackle each Clean Up Day along with a list of needed materials and supplies.  We will also pick a specific project for each month's Clean Up that we hope to complete in the time allowed.  Please plan to bring whatever you can and label any items with your name that you wish to return home with you.
