Aldine ISD Schools Continue to ‘Make A Difference’ in Our Communities

Disponible en:

Over the years, our school communities have supported many organizations. Every fall, all the schools in Aldine ISD collaborate with other campuses or organize their campuswide community service project for Make a Difference in late October. This year, Aldine ISD schools will Make a Difference in November.

Last year, due to COVID precautions, there was no in-person component to the event. Instead, each school collected non-perishable food items or raised funds to donate to an organization. Most importantly, they made it a memorable event in their school buildings by celebrating how much they collected as a team.

Stacey Smith, director of special programs at Aldine ISD, shared that “Make a Difference Day projects at schools are amazing events. They teach students the value and importance of helping neighbors in need.”

Be on the Lookout or Contact Your Child’s School for Details

November is National Gratitude Month and is the perfect time to think about how your staff and students can help your community. Reach out to local organizations to see how you can help. The event is also an excellent opportunity to collaborate with business partners.

This year, Smith encourages families to be on the lookout for their child’s school to send information home about their Make a Difference project or event. Most schools will complete their Make a Difference project on November 12. If you would like to donate or would like to sign up to volunteer, contact your child’s school.
