Monroe County School District issued the following announcement on Nov. 11.
Ms. Melon, Mr. Poffenberger, and the Ecology Club at Horace O'Bryant School partnered up with MOTE & LMC to collect candy wrappers to be recycled properly. Elementary and
Middle school students competed against each other to see who could bring in the most weight in candy wrappers and the results are in! Elementary wins!!!
The students collected 7 full trash bags in total from both the Elementary (4) and Middle (3) grades! Mrs. DePalma’s class brought in the highest total with a weight of 400 grams!
Ms. Edwards (257 g) and Ms. Giumarello’s (265 g) classes were separated by just 8 grams. Great job, Buccaneers!
