Sunnyside Elementary students highlight leadership, service projects to board
Summary
Sunnyside Elementary principal Tim Bolander and student leaders presented classroom and schoolwide leadership activities — fundraisers, community service, spirit events and student-led programs — during the April 13 board meeting.
Tim Bolander, principal at Sunnyside Elementary, introduced the Sunnyside student leadership team at the board's April 13 meeting. Several students spoke about the year's activities: spirit-wear fundraisers, family nights with hands-on math and reading activities, seasonal celebrations (Halloween, Grinch day, Dr. Seuss activities), High-Five Friday welcoming routines, and community service including visiting a homeless shelter and creating items for local veterans.
Student speakers emphasized leadership curriculum, classroom mission statements, and weekly recognition programs (Greyhound wall of pride and paw tickets for positive behavior). The student leadership team described fundraising and service work and invited board members to take photos after the presentation.
The board thanked the students and principal; the presentation was followed by a short student photo opportunity in the hallway.
Board takeaway: trustees praised student leaders and principal Bolander for student engagement and community connections.
