Community members were encouraged to recycle their scrap metal at one of those businesses where they could then donate all or a portion of the proceeds to benefit the LPS Recycling Program. The Lincoln Community donated the proceeds from over 66,700 pounds of metal that was recycled throughout the school year.\u00a0<\/p><p>These funds are used to replace aging, worn out steel recycling containers. They will be recycled as scrap metal and replaced with containers manufactured from recycled steels \u2013 closing the recycling loop. The LPS Recycling Program provides recycling education and opportunities in all LPS school classrooms, offices and support buildings.\u00a0 In 2021, LPS was able to reuse, recycle, and compost 2.88 million pounds of material, diverting 52% of its waste from the landfill.<\/p><p>Thank you to Alter Metal Recycling and Sadoff Iron and Metal Company for their continued partnership with this program.
