Completed by April 13, 2011
On the 13th of April, I talk to Interact and Ecology club about this campus clean-up. With the help from Tyler, I was able to accomplist this milestone. What I did was that I told Interact Club about the campus clean-up, then asked people who are interested to write down their emails and name. Tyler on the other hand, talked to Ecology Club about this campus clean-up. Sadly, no one is free on the day that this event will happen. I was going to change the date; however, many of my friends that I talked to during lunch are g free on that day, and they can probably come and help. Likewise, about seven to eight people from Interact Club are also interested in helping. So far they said that they can come unless there is a sudden change in their plan.
Next Steps:
-Talk to every club in our school

BLOG #1: Campus Clean-Up--Milestone
Completed by: April 11
On April 11, 2011, I talked to my friends about this campus clean-up. I was able to accomplish my milestone.I ask most of my friends if they are interesting in helping out, and some of them said that as for now, they can come. So far about six to seven people are interested incoming. I talked to them about the date, time, and what we will do there. Most of them think that they would love to help out because they think that our school need to have a clean-up. What I would like to change is probably talking to freshman and upper classman about this event because there might be more people who are interested in helping.

Campus Clean-Up: Team Member Outline
Campus Clean-Up
Group Contact Information:
Project Milestone dates:
The primary purpose of this project is to provide a clean and neat environment at schools for students to study and staffs to work. It is very important that the classrooms are clean because it allow students to work and study better. The clean environment allows the student to stay healthy and able to focus better.
This project align with our mission and goals as a class because the main goal of this class is to help providing a better environment for the community and school. As a leader, each student is expected to do something that would benefits his or her community and school. It is very important that each student do this because it allows them to meet different people and experience the real world. These different types of leadership projects allow student to reflect back on their action and also see the value of being a human being.
As the one who leads this project, I am suppose to be the one who plan everything out and making sure that my plans are taking into action. I am suppose to make sure that this project will be successful, and everything must be done thoroughly. In addition, I also need to make sure that all the people who participate will be there when this event happend.
In order for my group and I to get work done throughout the project, we cantact each other via email and meeting. During school time, we talk to each other during lunch. If we have any questions or ideas to share, we usually cantact each other via email. As the one who leads this project, I send out email to everyone as a reminder.
The larges obstacle in my way to success would be finding the right date and time so that everyone can attend. This will be the largest obstacle because everyone is busy with school works and extracirucular activities. It will be hard to find the date and time that everyone will be able to come.
It will be hard to overcome this obstacle; however, what I am going to do is to survey everyone first before coming up with the actual date and time. I would go to each club and ask them to write down their emails and names if they are interested in participating. Then I would email them about the date, and they have to reply whether they are free on that day. If a lot of people can attend then I would take that date and time. However, if not a lot of people can't come then I will ask them what day is a good day for them. I will email people again with the new date.

Campus Clean-Up
Project Title: Campus Clean-Up
Project Time Table:
Start on: April 14, 2011
Finish by:
Milestone dates:
-April 14, 2011: Talk to ecology/interact club
Mentor or advisor for project: Mrs. Fitz
I envision that the campus clean-up would happen right after school with the help from various students in Leadership as well as members of ecology and interact club. The purpose of this event is to provide a clean environment for each classroom. There will be several tasks for students to do during this event. They will clean all the tables in each classroom, pick up trash and clean the computers are. This event will allow us students to help the janitors. The janitors are not able to clean all the places in each classroom; therefore, this event will allow us to complete that part. This project align with our mission and goals as a class because the school will be cleaner, and it provides a better environment for the students to learn and staffs to work.

Some of the obstacles and or challenges that I am anticipating when working on this project include get people excited with cleaning up and volunteers unexpectedly dropping out. I believe that these will be the two biggest obstacles because cleaning up is not something that people get excited to do. However, if I offer volunteer hours to students, more people would attend because I know that a lot of people are looking for places to volunteer so that they could get all the hours down.
To ensure that I reach project milestones on the dates listed above, I need to have a checklist to keep me on top of things. To overcome these foreseen obstacles I need to have a backup plan. In addition, I need to be extremely detailed and organized with every single part of this project.
Here're some of the materials that I need to successfully carry out my project:
-Gloves -Trash Bags
-Anti-Bacterial wipes -Paper Towels
-Other all purpose cleaner
Other things besides materials that I need to be successful in my project are people. I need at about 13-16 people for this project, but of course more is always better. I plan to divide people into team and there will probably about 2-3 in each team. Each team will be responsible for one classroom. Each person will have many options to choose from. They can either wipe the tables tops, clean the computer area, and pick up trash in the classroom. I will make sure that each person will have a job to do.
My plan to hold myself and my group accountable for the success of the project is to get together and have a meeting. I would also remind people either via email or at school. I hope that my frequent reminders of the event will prevent people from forgetting about it.
