Earth Day
Help Welby Way and POWW celebrate Earth Day by recycling your old writing tools and empty squeeze pouches beginning Wednesday, April 22, through the end of the month. Recycling bins will be located by the front office/front gate for collection.
Let’s keep our planet clean, teach our children eco-friendly habits, and take another step toward a better future. ♻️🌳♥️
