SMENCIL SALES



Go Green for Technology ~ Dollars for Tech Scholars 
 On sale at WPS this Friday and then the 1st Friday of each month for the remainder of the year from 8:00-8:20am - Gourmet Scented Smencils

Help WPS and the environment at the same time!
Smencils are made by rolling sheets of newspaper tightly around #2 graphite writing cores until pencils of typical thickness are formed. Then they're hardened and soaked with gourmet liquid scents. Once they're dry, erasers are attached and the stickers that identify which scent was infused into each Smencil are applied around them. Lastly, each Original Smencil is placed into its own corn-based biodegradable Freshness Tube

Recycling Facts: An average sized cedar tree will make about 172,000 wood pencils. 172,000 Smencils can be made from 430 newspapers.
All Smencil are $1 and sales go towards purchasing technology, like SMARTboards for Windham Primary Students!
If your child would like to PRE-ORDER please send money to Mrs. Earle during the week leading up to the 1st Friday each month and I will pick them up before school that Friday morning. This is helpful to students who are on later buses and can't wait in line.
