Goal

The goal of the We Dine Together (WDT) Club is to build a community of leaders who will be of service to others. Focusing on new students, they will be able to assimilate into the school culture, students will form friendships, and learn to accept one another. We want to foster a sense of belonging, where all feel welcome. For existing students who may feel isolated or having difficulty making friends, the WDT club will help them form friendships and feel welcome. 

 

What will be done with my students

Students in WDT Club will provide school tours and be a lunch buddy to new students. We will have a monthly pizza luncheon for new students. Room 169 will be designated for the monthly pizza luncheon, as well as meeting with the WDT leaders and club members 2x/month. One student will be identified as the "Be Strong" Student State Representative. This student is identified as one that spreads kindness, positivity, and speaks up for others. Four students will be identified in four key areas- arts, athletics, academics & diffabilities. Four key areas to be addressed will be resilience training, acts of kindness, advocacy, and awareness. 

 

Benefits to my students

The students will help new students to feel welcomed and decrease their anxiety. The students will interact with new students and also existing students who may be isolated. We will create a safe place to go without fear of rejection. We will promote and create a sense of community and tolerance. 

 

Budget Narrative

We already have t-shirts and lanyards to promote unity. The pizza and snacks are for club meetings and new student luncheons. The craft supplies will be used to show appreciation and provide cheer to students and staff.
