Team Project Announcement: Applications open through 11/13.

"Please take a look at these pictures from last week ... on the sidewalks of New York," reports 1stYearUS, Tienna Navarro.  Interested in dogs, since the age of three, Tienna wants to start a new club during her first year of middle school ...  Caring for Our Furry Friends.  


She needs one Teacher, one Delacorte 6thYear, and One Global Parent to join her Club Council.  She aready knows her focus for her graduation project.  "We may be Middle School, but we are not living in the Middle Ages.  That's when folks didn't know about germs and refuse, illness and prevention.  Without this knowledge they were known to dump such stuff out their windows and front doors ... sullying everyone's path!"

I make it my duty to educate all dog owners/walkers - calling forth their civic duty - to dispose of refuse properly! Give us our streets ... especially our sidewalks... clean for little children to walk upon, strollers to return dooty-free to family apartments, and pedestrians to trust that the cracks in our track shoes remain empty and buoyant!  And what about the health and sensitivity of our city street workers?!"

Being a team learner, Tienna is  recieving applications from fellow first years. Please visit her website where you can download and upload your application, if interested.  Tienna also posted more pictures...you'll be disgusted enough to be motivated to doooo something positive!  She will select two promising applicants who will partner with Tienna over the next two years to initiate a needed Contribution of Great Merit, temporarily entitled: DOOTY-FREE (from the Sidewalks of New York).
