Needed Items:
"If you have a good condition six or eight foot long folding table, then would you consider giving or lending it to the school? These folding tables will be used to expand the available options for outdoor lunch for the children.
At this time, the school needs a dozen tables. If you have a table to offer and so as not to inundate the school with too many tables, then please send a courtesy email to Mrs Albright at tracey_albright@hcpss.org to let her know a table is on the way.
If you will be lending a table to the school, then label the table with your contact information so that it can be returned to you."

Marker and Pen Recycling Program at CLES
Are you replacing your child's school supplies this year? Do you have old markers, pens, and pencils that don't work?
CLES is providing a place to recycle, instead of trashing them!
Please collect your old markers, pens and pencils for recycling at CLES. There will be a box in the CLES vestibule starting on August 30 where you can deposit the following items for recycling: pens and pen caps, mechanical and wooden pencils, markers and marker caps, permanent markers, and permanent marker caps. Together we can make a difference!
Please reach out to Annie Byrd at CLESgreencommittee@gmail.com with any questions or if you are interested in partnering to make an environmental difference at CLES throughout the year.
