Mrs. DeLaurelle and Mrs. Woods had the amazing opportunity to meet with the entire crew last week for 1/2 a day to start planning our year! Each member worked very hard to make this morning successful and we were very proud of each of them!
We have set up individual committees out of our group of students. Each child has been placed on 1 committee so far and started to work on ideas within that small group. We had an amazing brainstorming session with the kids about special days and events they would like to do. It was also great to hear about the different charities that the students have an interest in helping this year. Each committee has a month that they were in charge of planning for. They had to choose the charity they were going to try to raise money for, a goal of how much they wanted to raise and what they were going to do to bring in donations! It was inspiring to walk around and listen to them take ownership of these ideas! We can't wait for the year to unfold and see the plans in action!
Our first event that Stars In Service is sponsoring is this Friday. We will be collecting donations to be given toward the Buddy Walk to support Down Syndrome. Students at Northpoint will be asked to bring in a dollar or more to donate for this very worthy cause. When students bring in a dollar, they will be able to staple it to a wall (our goal is to cover the entire thing!) and they also get to bring a piece of gum to chew! There were no posters due for this special day because of the short notice! To find out more information, check out http://www.buddywalk.org
