SUA Recycles!

By partnering with the Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub and TerraCycle, we divert many bags of trash from the landfill each week. With the help of our student SOS volunteers, we are now collecting hard-to-recycle items that Rumke rejects and delivering them to the Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub. 

Watch this student-made video to learn more about what we are now recycling at school and how you can get involved!

Send in any brand/size of your own used, clean, and dry items from home with your daughter to school:

  1. Clean and dry plastic film (chip bags, granola bar wrappers, etc.)
  2. Used clamshell cafeteria containers 
  3. Used plastic cutlery (forks, spoons, knives) AND unused, wrapped plastic cutlery
  4. Used Oral care items (toothbrushes, dental floss, toothpaste)
