FCCLA, Upstanders and National Honor Society are collecting plastic grocery bags until Nov. 30, 2024. We plan to turn the plastic bags into PLARN (plastic yarn) and learn to weave sleeping mats for the homeless. The material is lightweight, easy to dry and bug resistant.The mats make a good barrier between the ground and a person or as a blanket. We will begin "weaving" mats on Dec. 1. As mats are finished, they will be distributed to local groups that work with the homeless population.
You may leave your plastic bags in Room 104.
