DEEP CREEK MIDDLE SCHOOL EARLYACT CLUB FORMED

Posted by Jacqueline Gibson

Deep Creek Midle School students recently founded the first Early Act club in Eleuthera. Nineteen students have signed up and meet twice a month to plan projects for school, local and global service. The students have ambitious goals and a well packed calendar that includes community clean-ups, environmental workshops, and participating in the One Million Bones Project, an art activism project against genocide. “There are a lot of positive things happening on our island. Taking care of the community is well modeled here and I am excited that our students have embraced this. In fact, they are taking it to the next level. I am so pleased that they have really taken ownership of the ideas of responsible citizenship and leadership as these are priorities at our school,” says Dr. Joanna Paul, Rotarian and club advisor.
