On September 25th the freshman and sophomore classes did highway clean up! They go on the highway and clean up all the trash they could find for community service hours. Everyone loves it because we get out of school! September 27th the juniors and seniors are going to do beach clean up! They are going to Maranatha and cleaning up the trash around their beach. Right after lunch everyone who is doing highway or beach clean up has to watch the highway clean up video about safety. They have to watch it every year, every time they do highway/beach clean up.
After they watch the video, they get bright yellow vests and gloves to wear when picking up the trash! Then they load up the bus and get dropped off at their location! Each class gets dropped off at a different location and they have a chaperon with them, it is usually one of the teachers. They pick up trash for the rest of the school day, which is usually about 2 hours and those go toward their community service!
Calvary high school students do beach/highway clean up 2 times a year! The best part about it is getting out of class, and of course, all the weird things that people find! There have been many hilarious things that people have found throughout the years like high heel shoes, phone numbers and even underwear! I am sure if you asked, every high school class would have multiple stories of something that they found on highway clean up. Students enjoy this time to be able to clean up and do community service for our area. It is not only fun but it is something that pleases people around us and most importantly, it pleases God!- Morgan Rude, Senior
