Community ServiceAll Middle School students participate in regularly scheduled community and school service during the school day. Whether it is as simple as emptying the classes’ recycling bins or more time-consuming as tying quilts for the Humanitarian Center or making hygiene kits and school kits for students in Mexico, Middle School students are role models for younger students. Part of Community Service is also offering tutoring services to younger students within the school and in disadvantaged schools. Single Camera Television Production and Broadcasting Studio ClassesMiddle School students create video shows that air weekly along with regularly scheduled school-wide broadcasts of news, weather reports, upcoming events, and book reviews. Middle School students receive information from staff and students of all ages. This service unites the school into a wonderful camaraderie and creates a strong school spirit. Journalism ClassThe journalism students offer a marvelous service with their biweekly Reid Report. It is a vehicle for sharing student’s writing for every grade level, pictures and special school events and class field experiences.

They choose from: Mini-mini Olympics, Halloween Carnival, Shakespeare Festival, Yearbook, Talent Shows, Holiday Program, Mini-Olympics and Carnival, Sweetheart Dinner and Fine Arts Fair, Thanksgiving Feast, Library Volunteer, Spring Program and Graduation. Parent volunteers are invaluable to Reid School. |
