Great Avery. How do the students get involved n the projects? The projects sound like they have strong merit. The goal is not only to give but to get students and staff bonding by working together. The more they bond the more likely the student will not drop out (and leave their friends.) You can also get good publicity benefits from this within the community, to put on your website, and to show prospective students how caring the school is. Also suggest you pick projects where students can practice skills and gain confidence working with the public. Thanks, Susan
