Students Help with Adopt a Classroom

IMG_2044.JPGThe Adopt a Classroom project is off and running.  On March 10, students who attended the Phi Theta Kappa Spring Regional Leadership Convention hosted by NTC volunteered to assist with the first step.  50 students helped assemble and pack the materials local companies will be using to create literacy and garden kits.  Participants come from chapters across the state to engage in professional and leadership development activities, as well as fellowship and service. The local chapter wanted to provide an opportunity to connect with the United Way and engage in fellowship while serving our community.  

During April, local companies will be building the literacy kits and going to kindergarten classrooms to do a volunteer reading and container garden project with students. Each student will receive a free book and be able to watch their seeds germinate and grow into tasty vegetables.
