McPhee Electric has teamed up with the Louis Toffolon Elementary School on Northwest Drive in Plainville, CT to recycle our dry erase markers, permanent markers and highlighters.  Each building on McPhee’s campus has a location to collect these items which will periodically be brought to Toffolon School to add to their collection for Crayola.

This initiative is put together by the McPhee Green Team, our sustainability committee developed earlier this year.  The Green Team focuses on bringing forth sustainable actions for the company in governance, environmental, or social aspects.

Have old highlighters or markers? Don’t throw them away! ColorCycle them!

About Crayola ColorCycle

Crayola and schools across North America are banding together to help kids understand the importance of their role in protecting the environment. That’s why we launched Crayola ColorCycle. Through this initiative, students in K-12 schools across the continental United States and parts of Canada can collect and repurpose used Crayola markers.

ColorCycle is also a great opportunity for teachers and their students to explore eco-friendly practices. Specially developed standards-based lesson plans are available to enrich instruction and promote lively class discussions.
