MESSAGE FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB
The E-Club welcomes anybody who is open and curious about the environment, and cares about helping it thrive. The goal of the Environmental Club is to engage students in meaningful conversations about how to make the school more environmentally friendly and brainstorm ways in which each of us, as individuals, can be more environmentally conscious in our own homes, in addition to the work we do together to serve the community. The goal of this newsletter is to inform the greater student population of our initiatives and inspire them to become more sustainable on their own terms with tips and tricks. This month's newsletter is centered around how to make the holidays less wasteful.

COMMUNITY SERVICE
Our students continue to be busy providing service throughout the Newburyport region. The International Cultural Club supported the Harborside 5K and marathon. Also, thank you to the Interact Club and National Honor Society students for volunteering at Saturday Night’s successful Newburyport Education Foundation Auction.
Speaking of the Interact Club, Ms. Jill Moran has been recognized as a Robert C. Wood Memorial Hero. This is a tremendous accomplishment. As proclaimed at last week’s Rotarian Foundation Dinner, Ms. Moran “has fostered an environment at our school where volunteering is fun and cool.” We are very fortunate to have her as a part of our faculty and it is great to see our Interact Club thrive and serve as a model for other schools.
