VES Students’ Compassionate Project Benefits Great River Rescue

VES Students Project Benefits Great River Rescue

(Bemidji, MN) — May 9th, 2024 — Over the last week, a group of compassionate students from Voyageurs Expeditionary School (VES) in Bemidji rallied together to make a difference in their community. Their mission? To support the local humane society and ensure that every adopted animal finds a loving forever home.

The students put together a variety of blankets, toys, and treats to donate to Great River Rescue, a local humane society.

The mission of VES is to provide students with the necessary tools to lead productive lives through hands-on learning, service to others, and environmental stewardship. This group of students chose to give back to their community by helping Great River Rescue. The students each completed roughly 16 hours of community service during this weeks activities. This act of kindness reflects VES’s commitment to shaping responsible and compassionate citizens. Their thoughtful contribution will make a lasting impact on the lives of animals and their community.

High School Students at VES spend a portion of their day participating in project-based learning classes.  This is a time to dig further into a subject area across disciplines, to gain a deeper understanding of how it affects each student in their daily lives.  This is a hands-on, relevant learning time that can spur some changes in daily living for both instructor and student.
