Wheeling Road Mount Prospect, Illinois 60056 THE VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT BOY SCOUTS -NORTHWEST SUBURBAN COUNCIL COUNCIL, INC. an Illinois not-for-profit corporation 5 Proposed New Learning for Life Programs In the Village of Mt. Prospect The initial purpose for the Northwest Suburban Council's proposal to the Mt. Prospect Community Block Grant program was to start, fund and maintain programs at three new schools in our council; John Jay Elementary, Euclid Elementary and Frost Jr. High. The Northwest Suburban Council has since been in contact with Lirmea Pioro, Camp Fire, and believes that the students who attend Euclid school would benefit from a joint program. I am amending my original proposal and asking for $3000 to fund the Learning for Life program at Euclid school. The Learning for Life program is designed for all students age K--12~ gxade and occurs during the regular school day. All 550 students will have the opportunity to participate in the program that will mn the 1999-2000 school year. Learning for Life will meet the school-to-work needs of our schools no matter what their needs are. · Career Days · Topic specific speakers · Curriculum enhancement materials · Recognition program · Student interest survey (we will scan and provide the results) · Charts and stickers · Set up Field trips · Use of camp grounds for lock-ins/outdoor education · Full time professional · Potential participation in our summer camp programs Euclid had already shown an interest in becoming active in the Learning for Life program, but we need the Villages support. We have over 25 schools that are currently involved with our program and these schools, in the most part, are sponsored by the business in their communities. Without these funds we will not be able to provide this program to any of the students at these schools. Working with the Camp Fire program, an after school program, we can serve a much larger population from the Euclid school area.
