Post It Note Project

Hi. My name is Bisquit and I am from the Lee Academy Junior class.  We have decided to continue to build upon our first step of recycling cans and decided to do an art project for Earth Day.  We stumbled upon the idea of making art out of recyclable materials and post it notes through a message on Facebook I received from a friend of mine that is doing the project.  If one Google’s post it note project one will find some very interesting pictures and stories.  The original project that was described to me goes like this; students write little pick me up notes on a sticky notes and put them throughout the school.  This is meant to bring the morale of the school up and help those who are having a bad day or just need a little something to get through the day.  We adopted this project to our green mission and came up with Earth Week to make and display the project at our school.  We decided to make it this week because our prom is the actual day before Earth day and we are going to be decorating for prom that whole week.  So, we decided to make this a week long project that students can participate in to win a T-shirt.  We designed this T-shirt and are going to give them to the winning groups and have them for purchase to raise money for our cause and also bring awareness to the growing cause of being environmentally friendly.  We are getting a “two for one deal” because we are making our public sphere aware about environmental problems and we are raising money for our student organizations.  If you would like to add any input or have any suggestions please comment.

Presentation Reflection MJ

Hi, my name is Maggie, and I attend Lee Academy. I am enrolled in Mr. Moore's English Comp II class for concurrent credit. Lately we have been working on a recycling project within Lee. The money we recieve from recycling aluminum cans will fund student organizations, which Lee lacks. Two weeks ago my class and I hosted an assembly to explain exactly what we are doing and why.

Our SUPA presentation, Student Organizations: How We Will Create Them, got a tremendous amount of attention. Teachers began thinking about the future of Lee Academy, and the gears in students' minds began turning. This presentation was a great success, and could not have gone much better in my opinion. The whole student body is beginning to participate in the recycling project, which is a huge step for our cause.

We also received a lot of feedback. Teachers and students alike pledged their respect and even volunteered to help. Students expressed how much Lee needs student organizations. Also, parents told us they would also collect cans within their households. As a result of our campaign for a cleaner and more exciting school system, students are thinking more about the future of Lee Academy.

In the next few years, I see Lee as a more environmentally conscious and self-sufficient school. I believe we are inspiring the youth of Marianna, and our future looks promising!
