Welcome to our Club HOPE site. Club HOPE started in 2006 with several students in Mrs. Schwiebert's fifth grade homeroom. They wanted to know how they could make the world a better place. We would meet during recess and talk about what was going on in our lives and we decided to try to help the children at the Oklahoma City Rescue Mission. The students created "Operation Sweet Dreams" and were able to collect over 450 books (for the children's library at the mission) and 85 pairs of pajamas for the children who lived at the Rescue Mission.
This year the club was open to all fifth grade students, and more than 30 students show up every other Wednesday during their recess to talk about the choices they are making, on a daily basis, to make the world a better place. They are keeping a daily log of ways that they are being kind to themselves, their families, their school, their community, and the world.
The 2007-2008 Club HOPE at Prairie Vale decided to take on an a VERY ambitious project. The students voted to aim for acquiring 1200 juice drinks and 1200 kid-friendly snacks for the children at the shelter. They are working very hard to get these donations by December 1st!!! Keep watching, we will keep you posted on our progress!! We all think this seems quixotic (can you tell we just finished our "Don Quixote" unit!!), but we have confidence that we will reach our goal!

Club HOPE at Prairie Vale
Club HOPE is a fifth grade club at Prairie Vale Elementary School in Edmond, Oklahoma which was started in 2006. HOPE stands for Help One Person Everyday. We believe that we can begin to make our world a better place, even if we are young. In the club we start by being kind to ourselves, our families, our school, our community, then the world. The ultimate goal of Club HOPE is to empower us and help us grow up to be responsible and caring young men and women.
In 2007, we were fortunate to be chosen to be affiliated with the O Ambassadors organization and many of our activities are done in support of the children of Kenya.
If you have any questions about our club, please contact our club sponsor, Mrs. Kathy Schwiebert at: schwiebertk@deercreek.k12.ok.us
