A memo from one our scholarship recipients

Dear Rotary President,

I just wanted to say thank you for awarding me the Lewisville Morning Rotary Club Scholarship. I also wanted to apologize for sending this letter out so late, I just recently moved from Lewisville to Caddo Mills and all of my things have been in storage. I have been living in an RV since I moved here and I havent had access to all of my belongings. I really do miss Lewisville, there was so much more to do there and it was overall a good place to live. I currently attend Texas A&M Commerce and I am majoring in Kinesiology. My current plan for my future is to hopefully become a Physician Assistant and I know PA school is difficult to get into so I am trying my best to keep my grades up. I have a 4.0 for now and I am doing everything I can to keep it that way. I also recently became an ER Scribe in order to get medical experience. It is thanks to scholarships that I am able to continue my education so I wanted to say thank you again. Without this help I was given I would probably not be in the position I am now. I am the first person in my family to go to college and I know it is a big privilege to be here. If I have the funds to do so one day when I have a good job I want to give back just like you did and make a scholarship of my own.

Thank you for all your help.

Sincerely, Jacqueline Navarro

Early this year, grant forms were sent out and non-profits requested funding in support of their projects. The following grant awards were provided over the past month:

Congratulations Todd Taylor

Lewisville Morning Rotarians giving dictionaries to 3rd graders

On February 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th, members of the Lewisville Morning Rotary Club are visiting 11 Lewisville ISD School 3rd graders. Our Mission? To give awary dictionaries to 900 plus 3rd grade students.

Why do we give away dictionaries to 3rd graders? Because students in grades 1 through 3 are learning to read. Grades 4 and up they are reading to learn. These dictionaries will be a valuable tool in assisting these students for the remainder of their academic career.

This is a fun project for members as we give the dictionaires to the students we ask them to mark their name in the front, because now this dictionary is theirs. We have some fun exercises we ask the students to to do like look up the word rotary. Which of course we use as an entre into how Rotary got their name.

Lewisville Morning Rotary volunteers for Keep Lewisville Beautiful

Six Rotarians took an hour out of their Saturday to clean-up our Keep Lewisville Bueatiful Adopt-a-Spot on Garden Ridge.

There were six Rotarians this morning (Jan 28, 2023). Thank you to Bob Troyer, Mark Smith, Deanna Perkins, Charlene Dierks, Francis Al-Waely and Todd Taylor. Our Rotary club arranged this spot with Keep Lewisville Bueatiful several year ago and Rotarians and their families have been keeping it look good since. In addition to clean-up activity, the club has also arranged the planting of a few trees near-by.

Lewisville Rotary members get ready for our Annual Dictionary Project

Members of the Lewisville Morning Rotary Club spent their January 21st Saturday afternoon preparing dictionaries for distribution at 11 Lewisville ISD Schools.

Every year, Lewisville Morning Rotarians distribute almost 1000 dictionaries to 3rd graders. Why? Because it is a well known fact that the first 3 years of a child's education a child learns to read and the remainder of their education is spent reading to learn. Having a dictionary at their finger tips is integral to that learning process. For some children this will be the 1st book they have ever owned. This year, as in past years we have asked teachers if the printed dictionary is still the most effective choice for those students. Most believe that the printed dictionary is the most effective tool for students to learn word meanings, usage, pronunciation, spelling and forms. Interestingly, one of our members had a conversation recently with a student at Lewisville High School who when he learned the member was from Lewisville Morning Rotary told our member he still has the dictionary we gave him in third grade.

Serena Cavanaugh announced as Hebron High School November Student of the Month

Serena was nominated by her Academic Decathlon (AcDec) coach Mrs. Donna Friend.

Serena is a 3-year member of Hebron’s AcDec team, and she is a natural leader. She is witty and clever, and she sees where she is needed. If there is a spill on the floor, she will find a broom and sweep it up. If we need help decorating the hall, she will stay late and come in early to make it look awesome. When she knows our decathletes need an extra study session and preparation, she will organize it all and lead the teaching and learning. Additionally, she has led by example in her personal studies and preparation, continuously improving and growing as a student and competitor. She is just AWESOME!

Our January 19th meeting a celebration of our partnership with Hebron High School

The Lewisville Morning Rotary Club members have a passion for youth and vocational services through our Hebron High School partners.

HHS Principal Amy Boughton was part of our Jan 19th program that included the November, December and January Students of the Month.

Principal Amy is very supportive of Rotary initiatives such as the 4 Way Speech Contests and the Interact Clubs we have had in previous years and the opportunities for student volunteers at our Rotary projects such as the CCA Pantry, our Adopt-a-Spot and other club programs such as Western Days, ColorPalooza where students volunteer with our members.

For the benefit of Amy, the HHS Admin staff, our 3 students of the month and their parents Mark Smith presented a great summary of past, present and future projects that HHS and LMR have done together.
