Classroom Paper Recycling
Every classroom in Horry County public schools has the opportunity and should be recycling paper through the SWA's Classroom Paper Recycling Program. Each school is provided with classroom recycling bins and designated roll carts for free from the SWA. Each classroom should have one recycling bin, in which students can easily recycle classroom paper. Newspapers should be recycled separately from classroom paper.
