8th Grade Service Learning

This year 8C used what they learned in the classrooms to give back to Camp Kitaki for their service learning project.  They went out to the camp as a team to help them address some of their needs.  Projects included blazing new trails and preventing erosion, promoting biodiversity and helping to construct a natural play area.  Below are some pictures from their experience.


7th Grade Service Learning
Our 7th grade students have been busy working on their Service Learning Mural the last few weeks.  They created an 8’x20’ mural on 5 separate wooden panels and mounted it to the side of an old train car that is in front of the City Sprouts community gardens located a few blocks north of 40th & Hamilton.  The entire mural was created in 3 days!  Please check out the pictures below to see their amazing work.
Way to go 7th graders!!!

Service Learning at NMS
This year NMS is excited to approach service to our community through a service learning approach.  Service learning is fundamentally different than community service and has proven to be more meaningful for those involved.  Service learning makes a direct connection to our curriculum, allows students to research and learn more about the issue or service topic and requires students to reflect on their learning and experiences.
