Safe Driving

On Tuesday we pledged to be safe drivers for the "It Can Wait" campaign. Go to www.itcanwait.com to make your own pledge! Remember to put your phones away and be safe!

Two of our TEAM members, Lahoma Reeder and Phoebe Toledo, were in Washington, D.C. Wednesday through Friday representing us at the Teen Safe Driving Summit. They will now lead us throughout the coming year in a variety of projects surrounding safe driving habits. It's going to be a FUN, SAFE year!!

About TEAM

TEAM is an after school club for all 9-12th grade students. At our daily club meetings we do fun team-building activities that develop life skills, service projects that help us get to know our community better, tutor elementary-age children, and hold 4-H club focused on one of our key topics (Health & Nutrition, Home & Community, The Arts, Career Readiness, and STEM *Science, Technology, Engineering and Math*)

TEAM youth receive help and mentoring in preparing for college though homework tutoring, ACT prep, finding appropriate scholarships and filling out FAFSA forms and college and scholarship applications. We also participate in FUN outside projects at USU (think sidewalk painting, field trips to USU labs, and halloween parties with USU housing) and around town (think corn maze, Fun Park, and more!) and have Family Night Out activities for the entire family (think FoOd, FrIeNdS, and FuN!)

In addition, we have paired up with the Wilson Elementary P.A.W.S. (pursuing academics with success) program and every day you attend TEAM you can earn money to use for college!!!!

Our students also have various leadership opportunities, including trips! This fall we will have 3 students traveling to Washington, D.C. and 1 student taking a humanitarian trip to Samoa in December. Last year students went to Park City and to D.C.
