YAC 4th meeting: October 3, lunch Student Center

Next Steps: Decide what to do for Fall Fest by Wednesday.  Create an account at EDMODO using code:    for Mrs. Clay to easily communicate with all YAC members and for YAC members to communicate in a safe, protected, educational social network site for free.

1. Fall Fest: Friday, October 14, 4:00-8:00: What, who, where, when, how, and why
We did not make any decisions in this area.

2. Students Against Hunger: Casady Cans Do: There is a form from the Food Bank that need to be completed. The form was not completed. We made posters, decided to sponsor Food Bank Volunteering in October, before and once after the food drive.

Nov. 7-11: How to motivate to give? Why? who will take care of divisional cans? do we need to make more cans or do you have other ideas?  No more can costumes.  We have volunteers for most days from 7:00-7:50.  We still need volunteers who have an off to count cans during first hour at all divisions.  Mr. Fresonke and crew will pick-up donations on a daily basis after first period.

UD-Mrs. Clays facilitating YAC/STUCO Plans-What do you want to do? Do you need stickers? Do you need bags? What about chapels? Food Bank will provide speaker for all chapels one day? Do you need him/her? Would we collect money and cans? Are we having daily out of uniform or just for the winning class. Points for STUCO class competitions???   Zainab and Chandler will talk to Mr. Huestis and get back to us.

MD-Mrs. May-does not need stickers. They have house competitions. They do not collect money, they only collect cans.  They requested 200 plastic bags and no stickers.

LD-Mrs. France-No competition between grades, no can pyramids, wants stickers. 200 plastic bags and 250 stickers

PD-Mrs. Sharp-No competitions, but wants stickers

Ms. Angie Gaines: Coordinator from the Food Bank will provide boxes (2 LD, 4 for each other division, 2 per grade). She has Food Bank Stickers. She needs to know how many stickers and bags we need. Students responsible for divisions need to get this information ASAP

3. Dig Pink: How can we help...love Salman’s new definition of YAC YOU-unite A Community! It goes great with the mission of YAC “Find your passion to help our community”  YAC students will buy t-shirts, attend game and buy bake sale products.

4. NAIS-Challenge 20/20 Green Team Project: Salman might want time to recruit volunteers. Salman only reported on Recycling, Tuesday, 11: Enhance program with partnership with the City of the Village Recycling Program
5. International Day of Peace: Khadija might want to update her Mural Project which I hope to take to the Respect Diversity foundation exhibit in March, but also to add to the work on May Peace Prevail on Earth Exhibit my 5th graders will do December. Khadija might want to report on her participation with the MD and at the OCU Festival. There is a letter from the Shinnyo-en Foundation Executive Director which she might want to share with you all.  Mrs. Clay spoke on behalf of Khadija as we watched part of the International Day of peace celebrations at Casady and OCU via smilebox.  Khadija's giant pinwheel took first place at OCU festival.
