L.K.S. End Of Year Locker Cleanout
End of Year Locker Cleanout |
We are almost at the end of the year and you know what that means...your locker likely needs a good clean out!!! Remember to use the bins in the hallways during the set locker clean out dates -- they are clearly marked for RECYCLING, REUSE, AND GARBAGE. We will create a bin for REUSE for materials such as pencils, pens, binders, rulers, etc. As you know these things can be reused again next year! If you don't want them or need them - someone else might like to use these items! |
