Just wanted to remind everyone of spirit week (again :), & to encourage you all to PARTICIPATE!!! We're always talking about pride in the organization, teamwork, and a feeling of belonging. Be a part of our school spirit and support our athletic teams by dressing up all next week for Homecoming. If you have any great ideas, please post them here. If everyone gets involved, that is a GREAT example to the rest of the student body. *Spirit Day specifics are on our home page just in case you forgot ;)
If you've noticed that your resume is lacking a little, eh, participation... maybe you could volunteer around the community? Last year we noticed several businesses needing holiday help and were looking for volunteers to assist with the busy season. You never know, you might even land yourself a part-time job! Start looking for these opportunities now, the holiday will be here before you know it. And please share any volunteer opportunities you've heard about here. Help out your classmates and get involved together!
If you're having trouble with ideas of places to get involved, here are a few of your peers' suggestions: March of Dimes, Animal Shelter, Library, Church, Soup Kitchen, Nursing Homes, Goodwill, Coats for Kids... Make a difference~ Thieman The time is now to get involved with extracurricular activities!!! At Del Valle there are numerous organizations that any student may participate in... but YOU have to take that first step. So what is it that everyone is hoping to be a part of this year? HOSA? Basketball? Skate Club? DVDC??? What are your friends going to be doing? Find a way to spend time with people you enjoy, while doing something fun :)
Wishing all of you an amazing year~ Thieman |
