Service Projects Are Real-life Greatness

As educators, for the most part we deliver instruction to our students in hope of each of them not only understanding the concepts but applying them to real life. Today the 8th & 9th grades took part in Service projects & attended a Youth Frontiers Respect Retreat. I somehow wish, our district had a vertical team of such ideas. So much can be learned through giving a providing, it'd be so meaningful if there was a scope and squence of yearly such retreats that focused on reflecting and experiencing the good in these great days.
