Service Learning Projects

2025-2026 School Year

TENTATIVE SCHEDULE: SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Students in the Lower & Upper Schools will collect pledges to participate in our annual Water Walk and raise funds to build wells in rural Nigeria. Our friends in Nature's Pathways will be invited to cheer us on. Our goal is to surpass 2024's fundraising and gather at least $2,500 in pledges.

October 10th marks World Mental Health Day. Our Service Learning high school students are organizing several projects in honor of this important cause, including designing a survey and compiling the data for the upper school to reflect on their social media use and its impacts, inviting in guest speakers throughout the month, providing resources for parents/guardians, showcasing an interactive mindfulness display in the Academy, and coordinating and running a mindfulness and mental health workshop for the lower school students. Their hard work will culminate with an SNA Thrift Shop at the Fall Festival, where they will sell collected winter gear & SNA clothes donations to resell and raise funds for a local mental health organization.
