WHEATLAND – Forty-seven dresses. That’s how many dresses the seventh and eighth grade Life Skills students made for girls in Africa as a service-based project.
“I was involved in 4-H before working for the school and I feel that service projects are really important, especially for kids this age,” explained teacher Becky Moody. “I wanted the kids to learn about a bigger purpose, to give the kids a look beyond themselves so they would be motivated and to learn how something they do could have an application to the real world.”
