H.O.P.E. Co-Op
In honor of our former principal James MacAdams, who encouraged us all, teachers and students alike, to maintain HOPE, I am starting a club called the Co-Operative for Students Having Outstanding Positive Experiences, or HOPE Co-Op for short.
The mission of HOPE Co-Op is to
introduce new ideas to our members that they won't likely hear in school,
teach new habits to our members that they likely won't start on their own, and
encourage self-confidence that they need to be successful in school and in life
We will meet weekly and do a variety of things, which may include some or all of the following:
Give Speeches - speak in front of others to build confidence
Play Board Games - learn about real money to prepare for real life
Play Chess - grow your thinking skills to strengthen your mind
Exercise - start a life of good physical habits
Volunteer - give back to the community by serving others
We will also invite Guest Speakers so we can learn from their experiences.
HOPE Co-Op will be student-led by a President, Secretary & Treasurer, voted upon by the club.
