Ideas+for+a+Greener+Attea

Please add your ideas here on how we can make Attea a greener school.
 * Marek uses Gaggle and Google docs.Suggestions - confidential can delete so not so many of them or print only page.
 * Pamela has a "Green Club" of students- name of club to be added later. (sorry Pamela-can't remember). These students will be brainstorming ways that Attea can become a "Greener" school. She will invite them to our next Tech Committee to present some of their ideas.
 * Helene also demoed how to print double-sided form the AT LRC printer. This laser and the xerox copiers are the only printers in the school that you can double-side documents.
 * Henking ideas:
 * All future newsletters from class and all communication to parents from Attea to be delivered via email and or/will be accessible on our school web page. If you cannot receive communication electronically, send a note to continue receiving paper communication.
 * Outside organizations ie: Park District, Glenview Public Library and GEA wishing to deliver information to families through Attea will be asked to email the informaiton to the office where it will be forwarded to Attea families. Organizations that do not do this, will be asked to provide a single paper copy of infomraiton to be communicated. The information will then be scanned and e-mailed by the office and forwarded to families via email.
 * Notices regarding student lunch accounts will provide electronically whenever possible.
 * Teachers, using their judgment, will refrain from using paper to cover bulletin boards if possible. They will choose to use other materials such as newspaper, felt, burlap or inexpensive fabric is encouraged.
 * Meeting agendas, memos and all other internal communications will only be sent via email.
 * Printing
 * Always check the location that you are printing to
 * It is most cost effective to send pring jobs directly to the Xerox machines, especially using the double sided print feature
 * Print jobs to laserwriters should be picked up in a timely manner. (particularly from the LRC printer)
 * Use Print Preview before sending a print job out. Select the number of pages that need to be printed. This is necessary when web pages are printed because they will print many extra pages.
