Many of us hear about bad things happening, budget cuts, volunteers desperately being needed in our community on or around school campuses! So often because of our busy schedules we tend to think, oh, I'm sure someone will step up and do it!
What if they don't! There is probably a reason why you're hearing ramblings or postings about how desperately schools are needing good quality role-models and volunteers across the board! People are taking the banner up themselves!
Nearly all of us reading this blog have been through the school system. Whether public, private, religious or not, homeschooled or whatever, we have been through school!
One of my favorite sayings is that every community has a school and every school needs a community! They NEED you! What are you doing to get involved?
Coaching? Volunteering? Monitoring the lunchroom? Tutoring after school? Lending your specialized knowledge to a classroom lecture? Substitute teaching? Working the front desk? Lending a hand to the concession stand? Timing a swim meet? Being a referee? Going to school board meetings? Joining the PTO? Sponsoring a club? The list goes on and on!
Let's take ahold of personal responsibility for our schools! If you don't like the state of them in your community, don't just sit back and throw stones! Help tear down the walls and lend a hand in REBUILDING them!
If you love your schools, SHOW THEM! Give some time, lend a hand, help beautify them and invest in students in your community! If you model personal responsibility NOW, imagine the impact it could have on the future generations in your community!
Have a great day!
