Interact Leadership Cohort
The Interact Leadership Cohort at Kent Island High School had to either agree or disagree to the following:
“73% of Gen Z report feelings of loneliness either sometimes or always”
“Only 45% of Gen Z report excellent or very good mental health”
They AGREED, noting many kids are withdrawn and that phones and social media ultimately impact relationships. The discussion ended in talking about making time to invest in meaningful relationships.
Lunch & Serve
Our final lunch and serve of the school year was dedicated to making Mother's Day cards for the local senior center. It is so awesome to watch the students come together to make a positive impact on the community.
Field Day
4770 Shirts were donated this year for Field Day across 10 different schools! Seeing how each class chooses to make the shirts their own is always fun and makes for even more fun field day.
We had the incredible opportunity to volunteer on site at several different schools this year for Field Day. The best part about these days is seeing the "older kids" helping the "younger kids" have a great time. Can't wait for next year!
Win The Day Essay Contest
Our Win The Day Essay Contest had a great response from our Middle Schoolers. We received over 35 essays! These contests allow us to award winners significant money to either donate to charity or use for their future.
