Recycle Paper at our School!
You can recycle paper at our campus 7 days a week. We earn money for paper dropped off at our green and yellow Abitibi Paper Retriever bin. This is an easy way for you to recycle your paper every week and help us raise money for playgrounds, landscaping, books and other worthwhile activities. Please remember to bring your paper and drop it in the Abitibi Paper Retriever bin. This bin is free to use, just bring us your paper!

FISHCREEK ELEMENTARY NAMED WILD SCHOOL SITE
