September—Education and literacy month
 
Now is the time to plan a speaker and/or project related to Education and Literacy! Perhaps invite your school leaders to provide a report on the schools. Or survey teachers and administrators in your district and ask how we could meaningfully support them. What truly impactful projects can we implement to support education in our communities? Looking for a book project? Check out the Andy and Elmer books, which teach the 4-Way test and Service Above Self!
