some people think that community service is equal to or more valuable than sports. guilty as charged. the geniuses at THE LEAGUE WORLDWIDE are spreading the word and have set up school philanthropy as a team sport. here is where i break out the pom poms. teachers sign up online as the coach, each team (or class) earns points for each project. there is a learning lesson provided on the website for parents and teachers, there are rewards and awards. there are great ideas for each age group. this is my favorite thing EV-ER.
talk to your child's teacher about looking into it online. parents can also stay involved and hold places as part of the team.
