Ann Richards School to Participate in B3
Balcones has also partnered with the Ann Richards School for Young Women. Their art classes have been given the opportunity to design and paint their own recycling container. The Ann Richards School, one of the many Austin Independent School District schools serviced by Balcones Recycling, shares the same community values as Balcones Recycling. Though not directly part of the competition, the involvement of the Ann Richards School in this event demonstrates the importance of corporate involvement with local education and the support of the artistic talents of our youth. The container and painting, once completed will be located on the campus of the Ann Richards School, and used for their recycling program. The container will be on display at the competition.
