Abitibi Paper Retriever®

Recycle Bins

As a community service project and a fundraiser for the Baldwin-Whitehall Council of PTA, Abitibi Paper Retriever® Recycle Bins have bin placed at all schools in the Baldwin-Whitehall School District. During construction at the High School, the HS bin will be located at the Wallace Building.

You can recycle clean and dry: newspaper, magazines, shopping catalogs, office papers, school papers and even mail. Paper maybe shredded and bagged.

No phone books, food packages or any type of cardboard, please! Nothing can be accepted from the kitchen or bathroom. This may be done 24 hours a day/7days a week at any school building in the Baldwin-Whitehall School District.

We earn money for paper dropped off at our green and yellow Abitibi Paper Retriever® bins. For more information, log onto www.PaperRetriever.com.

“Eyes on Education” Action Day

A group of parents and students from the Baldwin-Whitehall School District traveled to the state’ capitol on June 17,2008 to participate in “Eyes on Education, A Student Photo Exhibit & Education Action Day,” put on by Good Schools Pennsylvania. The group consisted of three members of the Baldwin-Whitehall Council of PTAs and their children. Children were especially included in the event so as to present to our legislators the faces of education in the state.

A bill was passed by the House Education Committee, which will create a new school funding formula in Pennsylvania. This formula will address the need for greater equity, accountability and predictability in how public education is funded. The organization Good Schools Pennsylvania planned the day to draw attention to the progress made and the progress yet to be made on this issue. The day included legislative visits, including a meeting between the Baldwin-Whitehall delegation and Senator John Pippy; a demonstration of “Saving - Whoville,” an interactive program which illustrates the importance of adequate funding for schools and students; and a photo exhibit done by students from schools suffering under the current funding system.
