Mark your calendar for our Family Fitness Night,  Thursday, February 16th.

Florence Bowser will participate in a recycling program with the City of Suffolk. Beginning November 15, we will be collecting a variety of plastic that will be sent to the Trex Company to be turned into composite lumber used in building  many products. Trex utilizes millions of plastic bags each year.  By building a partnership with schools, students can learn the importance of recycling and keeping plastic out of landfills.  A bag collection box is located by main entrance. Don’t forget to count them, if possible, and write the total number with a marker on the outside bag, counting that bag.
