This is SO true..especially in the lower grades...and with all the states wanting kids to start school at 3 years old now, that means even MORE teachers needing things...
They really love empty thread spools! And diaper wipe boxes are worth their weight in GOLD..ehhehe
I watch our local FC daily and if I don't see anyone asking, then I go ahead an offer! I always get lots of responses!
Even for toilet paper rolls, etc. I waste nothing! AND our town does not have recycling..so..we just repurpose as much as possible!
