Kentwood is going green by teaching our kids to reduce, reuse and recycle! You will be helping the environment and at the same time, help raise money for the Kentwood Education Fund. Please bring your recyclable plastic bottles, aluminum cans and glass bottles to school every Friday, starting this Friday, September 27th. Drop off your recyclables behind the hedge at the front of the school by 8:15 or have your child deliver it to their classroom. If you have any questions, you can email fundraising@kentwoodes.org.
