Fall Community Service Projects at Calvert

Fall Food Drive:
The Lower and Middle Schools will again be participating in the Fall Food Drive from October 14 – October 18. This year we are collecting fresh foods, which will provide less fortunate families at area city schools access to healthy food and produce. Great foods to contribute would be sweet potatoes, squashes such as butternut, acorn and spaghetti, and root vegetables such as radishes, parsnips, turnips and beets.  Other foods to donate are green beans, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, apples, and oranges. 


Fall Family Day:
Calvert will once again sponsor a Fall Family Day of Service on Saturday, October 19th from 8:30-11:30 A.M. Please wear a Calvert t-shirt and join parents, teachers, and students (5th Age-8th Grade) as we work together to make contributions to our school community. 

This year in recognition of our neighbor’s patience during the recent construction, we are devoting certain activities to thanking our neighbors. Families will have the opportunity to participate in gardening and clean up around campus and the neighborhood. Please register on the Calvert website for this fun, worthy event. To ensure a successful community outreach day, please pre-register by October 14, 2013, for all activities in which your family plans to participate. 

If you cannot be with us but would like to contribute baked goods, we are also planning to offer complimentary breakfast treats and coffee to our neighbors.  

Thank you very much, the Calvert Outreach Program.
