Inkjet cartridge recycling

Dorchester Academy is now collecting empty inkjet cartridges for recycling. The collection bin is located in the front office.
Place your used cartridges in a plastic bag and deposit it in the bin. Most cartridges are accepted. Remember it takes 1000 years for the plastic in a cartridge to decompose in a landfill.
