Project SYKES: Successful Youth Knowledgeable & Eager for Service

Lanett City Schools - AL, Alabama

L.B. Sykes-Lanett Junior High School in Lanett, Alabama, was awarded $4,990.00 for their Learn and Serve project called Project SYKES: Successful Youth Knowledgeable & Eager for Service. Project SYKES incorporates service activities into required classes as well as clubs and organizations. The organizations and projects include:

1. National Honor Society sponsors peer tutoring.
2. The Drama Class sponsors theatrical productions and a summer theater workshop. Students perform for community groups and other schools in the district. The summer theater workshop is planned for elementary age children in the community.

Kalamazoo College is grateful for the myriad ways Michigan Campus Compact has inspired, supported, and celebrated service-learning initiatives on our campus and in our community, deeply rooting civic engagement in our curriculum and our culture."
