- The Service Learning Board is collecting peanut butter, canned meat (chicken or tuna), canned vegetables, canned fruit, pasta and cereal to support those in our Nashville community struggling with hunger. Now through Monday, October 30, bring in any of the suggested items to help those in need. Collection bins will be located in the Rotunda. Open your pantry door and grab just one can to make a difference. Together, we CAN solve hunger!

- Service learning is a deliberate process through which students can develop skills, knowledge, and civic awareness while making meaningful contributions to their communities. The Service Learning Board, grade 3-6 representatives, encourages involvement from the student body to put service into action. Please share your ideas as we remember to whom much is given, much will be required. Click HERE to review the process to propose a service project to the Service Learning Board.
