Garbage! That is what is all over our school. We really hadn’t noticed it until we were asked to do this article. Then we looked. People are just like us – scurrying from class to class – not noticing the trail they leave behind them.
We watched people drop papers, pencils, food, pop cans, milk cartons, candy wrappers, apple cores, banana peels, etc., etc. on the floor as they walked through the halls. We wondered what all these kids must think of MHS if they treat it this way. Why don’t they throw their garbage away? Why don’t they pick up after themselves?
We’d like to say to Tonka students – Come on now! It’s just as easy to drop your garbage in the garbage can as it is to drop it on the floor! Do you really enjoy all this garbage surrounding you? Let’s all get our act together!
Thank you for your attention!
