CHS Interact Members Deliver Dictionaries on the Reservation

     On November 1, the Chadron High Interact Club delivered dictionaries to third graders on the Reservation to help increase their vocabulary.
     According to Interact President Danielle Johnson, "The Dictionary Distribution consisted of passing out Dictionaries to third graders on Pine Ridge.  We traveled to different schools on the Reservation and showed the students how to use them and showed them the different resources it offers.
     Johnson stated that the service project was performed by high school Interact members, Rotary members, and the group's sponsor, Roger Wess.  The group left the school at 6 in the morning and returned at 4 in the afternoon.
     Student volunteer Kaylie Elliott said, "We gave them dictionaries because the children on the Reservation are bright, but the circumstances they are in don't always allow them to shine as bright as they can.  We gave them a tool they need to excel and expand their vocabulary, while also expanding their future opportunities."
