Law’s Natural Helpers Club held its first meeting of the school year in early October and has already had an impact on the school community this year. 

The Natural Helpers Club is looking for new students to join, help spread inclusiveness, and help those in the Law community that need it. 

“The Natural Helpers Club is all about supporting our peers and if someone doesn’t want to talk to an adult about something they can come to us,” Junior Natural Helpers Club President Makenna Sharpe said. “We (planned) a ‘Start With Hello’…which is associated with the Sandy Hook promise to promote inclusion.”

The club is looking for students that want to go around the Law community and help others with problems that they are dealing with. Members are hoping that more students will join and help others around the Law community. 

The Sandy Hook Promise’s “Start with Hello” program asks that if students see someone alone, to reach out and help them by just starting with a hello. Members of the Natural Helpers Club appeared on Eagle Eye News for a week in October and gave students facts and advice on how they implement the “Start With Hello” program in their daily lives.

Natural Helpers advisor Ms. Smuniewski said that she is looking forward to working with the members of the club this year – at school or virtually.

“I’m just really excited to be back in person and to be able to work with such a motivated, determined group of students in the club this year,” Smuniewski said.
