Shoe recycling takes place right here at McKinley Elementary!!
Do you still have your kid’s worn out shoes hanging around the house? Do some of your own
shoes need to be discarded? Are you willing to do something really easy that will help
our environment, help kids and last but not least, clean up your house?
McKinley
Elementary collects old, worn out athletic shoes to be recycled through the Nike reuse-a-shoe program. Instead of the shoes going
to the landfills, the shoes will be recycled into materials for the creation of new athletic surfaces at schools and parks.
Please drop off your athletic shoes (men’s,
women’s and children’s sizes all accepted) in the white wooden container outside of the small gym.
The 3rd grade Brownie troop will be monitoring the container and taking them to the center for recycling.
All you need to do is bring shoes. Mention it to family members and neighbors.
We want to collect a lot!
Please do not:
