Project Service Leadership

Project Ideas:

Students from Central Valley High School implemented a variety of service activities within their School-to-Work efforts. For example, they have designed and built a central receiving station for Goodwill Industries.

REAL: (Rural Entrepreneurship through Action Learning) This project enables high school students in rural communities to develop enterprises which they can "take with them" as graduates. A graduate started a business in a high school that currently employees and contributes to the economic well being of the rural community.

Credit Union: Students at Grand Coulee High School run a credit union that serves the community as well as youth.

Riverside School-Based Enterprises: The following small business incubators have successfully operated at Riverside High School in Chattaroy, Washington:
- Printshop
- Thrift and Gift Shop
- Computer technology
- Youth Employment Agency
Campaign to "Stop Hunger in North Carolina": Students reserach the occurence of hunger within their state. They prepare presentations and make posters to make others aware of the problem. Students volunteer at the local Food Bank at least one evening each month. Students collect food for a food drive, or plant a row in the school garden just for the Food Bank.
