Evaluators Needed For Community Projects

Jenny Wilson shares this request with you…

The Community Service-Learning Projects class at Friday Harbor High School is a chance for juniors to explore their passions and strengths by designing a project with a community partner that addresses a need in the community.

By designing and completing a meaningful project it is hoped that students will leave a lasting legacy for the school, community and themselves.

The semester is soon coming to an end and students have been working diligently to complete their projects. On Wednesday June 5th, 2016 (5:30 – 7:00 P.M.), students will be giving presentations demonstrating all that they have accomplished and learned this term.

We need community members to come and give valuable feedback to our students about their projects. It will truly be an exciting evening to learn about so many great projects such as: filming a documentary about our resident orcas, creating better wheelchair access at Jackson’s Beach, building insulated dog houses for our furry companions, helping to organize the Island Haven Animal Sanctuary, gardening at the Village at the Harbor, painting a mural for the Turnbull gym, excavating a cart at Lime Kiln State Park …. just to name a few. 

We had a total of twenty-one different projects going this semester!

For those of you who have assisted us before, I think you will be impressed with how far we continue to progress as a school in our efforts to make community connections and do real world work. For those of you who have not attended these presentations, it’s an opportunity to see the accomplishments of students in our school. We are proud of the passion students have for their service projects.

We need approximately 21 evaluators

  • What:  Community Service-Learning Presentations
  • Where: Friday Harbor High School
  • When:  Wednesday, June 5th
  • Time:    5:30 – 7:00
  • Why:      Give feedback to students about their projects

Please respond by email at: [email protected] if you can evaluate. Also, please contact friends that you think could help us in June. We need quite few evaluators this time around.

Thank you for all you do on behalf of the students and their learning!
