Week of Service School Happenings

Also throughout the week in their own classes, students across all grade levels will engage in meaningful community service, social justice learning, and environmental stewardship activities.

Kindergartners will observe the neighborhood around school to identify areas where they can make a positive impact, and then create and hang posters throughout the neighborhood to encourage community stewardship of our shared outdoor spaces.

First graders will partner with their seventh-grade buddies to perform Random Acts of Kindness, while second graders will assemble hygiene kits for Glide that middle school students will deliver during their upcoming volunteer shifts.

Third, fourth, and sixth graders will participate in Random Acts of Kindness activities throughout the week. Fourth graders will also continue their relationship with Heron’s Head to do habitat restoration work, and will be kicking off their Adopt-a-Drain initiative, while fifth graders will explore environmental impact and personal responsibility while learning more about Martin Luther King Jr.

In addition to their Random Acts of Kindness, sixth graders will be launching their neighborhood Adopt-a-Drain project as part of science class, and will close out the week with a park cleanup at Crane Cove on Friday afternoon.

Finally, sixth, seventh, and eighth graders will have opportunities to go deeper with our guest speakers in their classes, connecting the presenters' work to their ongoing learning.
