Areyvut is excited to have the pleasure of working with 60 6th grade students at North Shore Hebrew Academy on a Project Based Learning Community Service Program.
Rather than the school leadership determining where the students should donate funds, volunteer and what agencies they should partner with this year, the students will research agencies and present them to their peers. The students will be empowered to think big, learn about community needs and to plan projects that they and the school community will be implementing throughout the year. At the conclusion of this interactive program participants will vote on which agencies they want to work with most. The 6th grade leaders will then work together with the school leadership to facilitate projects with the selected agencies throughout the year.
The goal of the program is for students to better understand community needs and the many ways that they can serve, benefit and impact the community.
The program will take place at the school on September 26 from 12:00-1:30.
