Mollie Boyer of Valley Community For Recycling Solutions visited Susitna Valley High School on Tuesday. Mollie has been working with the Student Advisory Council, which is school district wide, for over a year. With the involvement of both the Su Valley high schoolers and middle schoolers, they are moving forward with the school district on recycling. KTNA’s Katie Writer spoke with Molly about what’s new with recycling in the Susitna Valley.
