PalmettoPride, in partnership with the Commission on National and Community Service at the South Carolina Department of Education, has sponsored the development of this curriculum resource for public school teachers from kindergarten through grade twelve. Recognizing the central role that education plays in the eradication of the state’s litter problem, PalmettoPride is working to instill in students a keen awareness of the problem and a personal interest in the creation and implementation of viable ways of addressing it.
 Hey, kids!!
What time is it? It's time to clean up South Carolina!!
It's important to get rid of litter in our state, and you can help. Make your PalmettoPride Promise not to litter and encourage your family and friends to promise too! Ask them to join you in your pledge, and let them know that litter belongs in the trash can.
