For 2020-2021, Shamrock Club is still on!  A digital Shamrock Club form coming soon!
Shamrock Club is the service club at Maple Glen!  Every student is invited and encouraged to participate.  To be a part of Shamrock Club, students must complete 4 (or more) 1 hour acts of service.  These acts can be in the school, with Scouts, with a church, or anywhere in the community.  Once your child has done four acts, s/he will post a Shamrock on the Shamrock Club wall in the café!  Below are some ideas for Acts of Service to get students started.  This list is just a starting point.  Anything that involves helping, serving, or appreciating counts – Enjoy the feeling of kindness!!
