A Day On

An annual tradition for the Blue Team is participation in volunteer activities on or around Martin Luther King Day. Ten points of extra credit are given to students who bring written verification that they participated in a volunteer activity. This can be a formal activity, such as those found on the list of this City of Bloomington link:

You might also come up with your own project, such as picking up trash in the neighborhood, helping an elderly neighbor or relative with shopping, babysitting (for free) siblings or neighbors, dog walking, or whatever you might think to do that would be helpful and contribute in some way to the community.

Finally, you might participate in the events of the day. This year the Rev. Jesse Jackson will be speaking at the Buskirk on January 18th.

Remember, to receive the extra credit you must bring a statement, signed by an adult, that verifies your participation.

Have fun!
