My Project

COVID-19 impacted our students' social interactions. My student council leadership is a great group of 4th and 5th graders that are hoping to plan activities and events for their fellow classmates at our Family Fun Nights.

These resources will allow us to lead game tournaments, book clubs, art activities, and provide snacks at our post-COVID Family Nights.

The giant games and books will let us host tournaments and book clubs for interested students to talk, work in teams, and play games. The supplies will let us coordinate and lead activity stations at our monthly Family Fun Nights. All of these events will allow us to practice social skills again: talking, taking turns, and making new friends.

Thank you so much for supporting our leadership students!

Ms. Yusko Kealakehe Elementary School Grades 3-5
