CCHS students learned how to turn blue jeans into paper during a Focus Friday class with Spanish teacher Magali McCarty.
She explained the process to the students, who worked in teams to complete the conversion. Students cut up blue jeans the prior week to prepare for this project. They utilized picture frames with steel mesh stapled to the frame to hold the blue jean pulp.
After the jeans are run through a blender, it creates pulp. The pulp was scooped out of a bucket onto the mesh frame where water was sponged out of it and then the paper was moved to a towel for drying.
McCarty hopes to continue the class for another three weeks and offer students the opportunity to make bookmarks for the library. Students will decorate them as well.

A Carroll County High School band student was in need of a trumpet so Youth Services Coordinator Tracey Reynolds set out to meet the need.
She made a Facebook request and, within a short time, received a call from Danny Tharp, owner of 3D Concrete. He donated $450 this week for the purchase of the instrument.
“It's people like Danny who give back to the community to help meet the needs of our students,” Reynolds said, noting she and Tharp have been friends since their days at CCHS. The trumpet will remain at CCHS for future students.
“The CCHS family is grateful for the generosity of our community, especially when it involves improving the school experience for our students,” said Principal Amy Sutter. “This donation is proof that together we can do so much to support our students.”
