INDIA SERVICE TRIP Ensworth students partnered with World Leadership School and The Timbaktu Collective to raise $4,500 for their Community Project in Bangalore, where they helped construct two solar panel lamps, new bathrooms, and a collaborative 3D maze at the local school. They partnered with local students and NGO’s where they immersed in the daily life and learned from local leaders. http:// ensworth-india-2015.blogspot.com/ SERVICE SCHOLAR A Service Scholars program, introducted for seniors to engage in an extension of his/her senior Service Learning project, will be introduced this year. Service Scholars exercise and incorporate the Core Skills that they have learned in their classes and apply them to their senior Service Learning experiences. Service Scholars complete at least 20 hours of service on their projects beyond what is required. They spend additional time collecting facts, researching and composing a paper that provides insight into the issues relevant to their project, and a 500-word reflection analyzing their personal experience with the project. Those students named a “Service Scholar” will speak to the student body on Social Issues Day in 2016. SERVICE LEARNING DAY 345 high school students and faculty served 34 Nashville locations for Service Learning Day on April 10. Pictured: Teaching with BrightStone at the Williamson County Library
