ECO-St. Lo
Logo Eco St Lo

Here is your green tip of the week from ECO-St. Lo, your award-winning local environment group.

 

St. Lawrence recycles ink cartridges! Just bring your old cartridges to the reception desk!

Inkjet cartridges are made out of plastic. Plastic is a petroleum-based product and takes about 1,000 years to decompose. Every year 300 million empty inkjet cartridges are thrown into the refuse bin. This amounts to 75,000 tons of trash.

These may end up in landfills or incinerators. An enormous amount of money is spent each year for landfill management because our landfills are filling up faster than ever.

The energy needed to produce a new product is several times the amount needed than reusing or recycling an old one. Recycling cartridges is very easily done. Most companies selling remanufactured inkjet cartridges have their own recycling programs.

The average inkjet cartridge uses 3.5 oz. of oil in its production. Imagine this quantity saved a million times over.

Remanufactured or recycled cartridges are just as good as new ones. When you buy recycled cartridges at a slightly cheaper price you are not sacrificing quality you are saving your money because money was saved by the companies remanufacturing this product.

So bring your old cartridges to the reception desk. At St. Lawrence, it's easy being green!


At St Lawrence, it's easy being green!

 

 

DO YOU NEED TO TAKE THE SAT?
SAT

Students planning to go study in the States are generally required to complete SAT testing. The test is administered by the College Board. Canadian students are considered to be international students, and therefore, must register at the latest November 8, 2011 for the December 3 test date. We strongly encourage you to apply by the October 25 (early registration deadline) if you are sure of taking the test. Students planning to take both the SAT and SAT Subject tests must do so on two separate testing days.

 

St. Lawrence is an authorized testing center. Students wishing to take the SAT can register for the December 3 or January 28 test dates. Although St. Lawrence is an authorized testing center, you must register online at  http://sat.collegeboard.org and pay your testing fees to the College Board. Study materials are available at your library. You may also use free online practice tools or order additional practice material. The registration booklets, as well as the preparation booklets, are available in the Counselling Office, room 254.  

 

Our test center code is 97261 (if you don't find our name on the list, you may also search by code). If you have any questions about the registration process, you may contact Nicole Anne Daigle, Guidance Counsellor.
