Good morning,

Blue Ribbon Youth Leadership Institute (YLI) will be meeting today during lunch in Ms. Paige’s classroom (room D217). (Michelle Kim - michelle.kim@chccs.k12.nc.us)

2017-2018 Student Government election forms are now available! This year, along with officer campaigns, one senator from each grade will be elected this spring. Forms for both officer and senator candidacy can be found next to the bulletin board in front of the Lower E wing. All forms are due by WEDNESDAY MARCH 15th! Good luck!

Covenant Place needs a student volunteer to teach older adults simple computer skills, how to set up an email account, how to create and save a Word document, simple web searches, etc.  We have approximately 40 residents but I would estimate 10 – 12 would actually participate.  I thought it might be nice to have residents meet with the student volunteer in small groups (2-3) or even one on one depending on skill level.  The number of hours will vary depending on what the student want to do and is able to accomplish.
