Read the script:
NOW -- THERE’S ANOTHER GROUP OF STUDENTS THAT WE WANT TO TIP OUR HATS OFF TO IN THIS WEEK’S A PLUS.
WE’RE GIVING A SHOUT OUT TO THE SCIENCE CLUB AT MEMORIAL ELEMENTARY IN BRUNSWICK, ALSO KNOWN AS ‘THE MEMORIAL MAD SCIENTISTS’, OR ‘M & M’S.’
WE GOT AN EMAIL FROM 5TH GRADE M & M DYLAN PRATT, WHO WANTED TO LET US KNOW HOW THE CLUB IS PROMOTING RECYCLING IN THEIR SCHOOL. DYLAN TELLS US THAT HE RECYCLES “TO HELP THE EARTH FROM GETTING POLLUTED.”
SCIENCE CLUB COORDINATOR JENNY BIERMAN SAID THIS IS THE SECOND YEAR THE CLUB HAS BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SCHOOL’S RECYCLING, WHICH MEANS THAT THEY COLLECT THE BLUE BINS FROM EACH ROOM EVERY WEEK, AND CARRY THEM OUT TO THE SCHOOL’S RECYCLING DUMPSTER.
TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE IS USING THE BINS CORRECTLY, THE M & M’S MADE POSTERS AND SIGNS TO HANG AROUND THE SCHOOL. THEY ALSO CREATED SKITS AND COMMERCIALS TO SHARE ON THE MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS:

AT THE END OF THE YEAR, THEY GIVE OUT “GREEN AWARDS” TO RECOGNIZE THE TOP RECYCLERS FROM EACH GRADE AND SECTION OF THE SCHOOL.
AND WHEN THEY’RE NOT RECYCLING, THEY ARE BUSY WITH STEM ACTIVITIES LIKE BUILDING, CODING, AND…BALANCING, APPARENTLY.
SOT: “WE ARE SCIENCE CLUB. WE RECYCLE AND SO SHOULD YOU!”
POINT TAKEN. WHEN I’M DONE READING NEWSDEPTH SCRIPTS, THEY ALWAYS GO IN ‘MY’ RECYCLING BIN! EXCEPT FOR A FEW THAT I GIVE TO SCHOOLS WE VISIT!
SO FOR THAT GREAT REMINDER -- AND ALL THAT RECYCLING, WE’RE GIVING THE MEMORIAL MAD SCIENTISTS THIS WEEK’S A PLUS!
