📦♻️Starting last school year, the BJHS Student Council introduced a shoebox Terracycle collection box in every classroom to collect hard-to-recycle items like pens, pencils, and markers. The results? Phenomenal! They filled Their main TerraCycle Collection box, measuring 11 x 11 x 40 inches in just one semester. 🌟 Fast forward to this school year, and they've already filled the first main collection box and started a second box and are on track to a greener future. 📈♻️ Kudos to the BJHS Student Council members who are rock stars at collecting every two weeks from all classrooms. Together, they're not just reducing waste one shoebox at a time; they're showing what young leadership and commitment to the environment is all about! 🌱🙌 #Terracycle #BJHSStudentCouncil #EcoWarriors #Recycle #GreenSchool #Sustainability #WeAreD87 📦♻️A comienzos del año anterior, los estudiantes del Consejo Estudiantil de BJHS presentaron un proyecto de Terracycle con una caja de zapatos en cada salón de clases con el propósito de recolectar objetos difíciles de reciclar como plumas, marcadores y lapiceros. ¿Los resultados? ¡Fenomenales! Llenaron su caja central de recolección TerraCycle, la cual mide 11 x 11 x 40 pulgadas en solo un semestre. 🌟 Ahora en este año escolar, ya llenaron la primera caja de recolección y comenzaron a llenar la segunda lo que los pone en camino a un futuro más verde. 📈♻️ Kudos a los miembros del Consejo Estudiantil de BJHS quienes son superestrellas al recolectar cada dos semanas de todos los salones de clase. Juntos, no solo están reduciendo los desperdicios de una caja de zapatos a la vez; ¡también están mostrando de lo que trata el liderazgo joven y el compromiso hacia el ambiente! 🌱🙌 #Terracycle ConsejoEstudiantildeBJHS #GuerrerosEcologicos #Recicla #EscuelaVerde #Sustentabilidad #SomosD87

🎈🌞With the solar eclipse grabbing all the limelight, let's not forget there's so much more happening in our skies! Yesterday, BACC students had a unique chance for a hands-on learning experience, thanks to the State Farm STEM team. Students had first-row tickets to multiple weather balloon launches, learning about the technology powering these climate tools, the kind of data collected once the balloon is in our atmosphere, and hands-on understanding of mechanisms that track our weather and steer scientific discoveries. 🌈🔬 While the solar eclipse is a sight to behold, keep your eyes to the sky because there are lots of amazing things going on up there- you never know what marvels you might spot next! 🌟🌌 #WeatherBalloons #STEMLearning #BACCScience #EclipseExcitement #WeAreD87
