Thank you to the Montoursville Area High School Environmental Club for helping the Northcentral Pennsylvania Conservancy (NPC) with the eclipse glasses recycling process!
Before shipping the glasses to Astronomers Without Borders, they needed to be sorted by color and manufacturer. Over the past several weeks, the students in this club took time out of their busy schedules to sort over 1,200 glasses!
“It is a great way to get students involved, earn hours for the club, and learn why it is important to recycle the glasses.”
Cody Pavlick, the club’s advisor and Montoursville Area High School science teacher
Now, the glasses are ready to be shipped out and ultimately donated to other users to safely view future eclipses in other parts of the world.
