Campus Clean-Up
12th grade students organized a school/community clean-up and earned service learning hours while cleaning up the campus/ community around ConneXions, Bard, and Independence High Schools. This event was held on 12/21/17.
This campus clean-up was initiated by 12th grade students Danielle, Rickeira, and Tazea. Mariah, Lamontez, Adonis, RoShay, and Deshantae all participated and earned service learning hours.
This campus cleanup was in April of 2017 and approximately 60 students participated.
Bike Rides
Students in the bike club participate in biweekly bicycle rides around the parks and roads surrounding ConneXions in order to encourage healthy activities and encourage students to spend more time outdoors. These rides occur on Wednesdays and Thursdays. All students and staff are invited.
Nutrition Projects
In February of 2018, seniors at ConneXions initiated a service learning project where they created and shared healthy recipes. Students researched healthy recipes, created "cookbooks", and shared their favorites with peers.
