Did you know that we have a leadership and service learning program for students in grades 5-7?
Emily Davey is the on-site advisor for Esko Leads.
Esko Leads is a group that strives to inspire and educate teens to discover the leader within themselves. In this group, students will work together to find out who they are and what they can achieve, now and in the future. Our priority as a group is to work with local citizens and organizations to benefit our schools, homes and communities through service learning.
Join us in sharing this brave vision and helping Esko become a better place to raise your children and grandchildren in the 21st century and beyond. Please consider how you or your organization may become involved.
Some projects we worked on this year:
We carved pumpkins and helped set up the School Forest Pumpkin Walk
We held a food drive for the Cloquet salvation army.
We raised money for Esko Area's Best Christmas Ever campaign.
We organized and hosted the Esko Winterfest Carnival!
We raised money to purchase activities for area nursing homes.
We made tie blankets to donate to Animal Allies in Duluth.
We shared our appreciation for our teachers by decorating the lounge and writing hand written letters!
