Supporting Student-driven Initiatives
Organic, student-led efforts in support of local and global causes are a hallmark of our globally-aware and engaged students and the Springmont experience. In keeping with our core values, students are encouraged to see beyond themselves and to lead socially useful and purposeful lives.
Student initiatives often reflect a strong awareness of the natural world and each person's responsibility for it. As stewards of our environment, students feel authentically compelled to advocate for the world around them.
Last week's Thursday folder contained information about supporting SST (Save the Sea Turtles). Born of concern for the plight of sea turtles, a group of Upper Elementary students is selling hand-painted t-shirts and accepting donations to fund increased awareness. T-shirts are $8 each and can be pre-ordered in the Front Office. Please consider supporting their effort. Not only will you be helping sea turtles, but you will also be encouraging students to take independent, meaningful action in support of causes that speak to them. Supporting compassion and initiative now will help prepare Springmont students for their roles as our socially-conscious leaders of the future.
