Ambassador Clubs receives grants
To support projects that address lifeskills and challenges facing students, the Foundation awarded grants of up to $1,000 to Ambassador Clubs at Avalon, Conway, Corner Lake, Glenridge, Lee, Maitland, Walker, and Wolf Lake middle schools. Projects are intended to help middle school students become healthy, productive adults and ranged from personal development to self-image and assertiveness to substance abuse and discipline.
T-shirts for SAFE Ambassador Club members
Middle Schools with the SAFE program Ambassador Club are sporting new shirts around campus. Each Ambassador Club student and club sponsor received t-shirts with the club logo on the front and all middle school names on the back. The t-shirts help students in school recognize the Ambassador Club students.
LifeSkills curriculum being delivered
Orange County Public School SAFE Coordinators are successfully delivering LifeSkills curriculum in the school system. With the help of health, social studies, science and P.E. teachers 6th grade students receive 15 lessons ranging from Self-Improvement to Alcohol: Myths and Realities. The 7th and 8th grade students receive booster curriculum to reinforce the 15 lessons they received in 6th grade.
