What's going on so far
Right now I haven't completed any project yet but I am planning to have a cleanup at Aviation High School or a road that is close to the school. I just have to ask the ASB for money to buy the materials I need and ask them if they have the materials I need to complete the project. If the ASB don't have the materials I can just buy them. When I have that planned out then I can start my project. I am also planning on helping Ana and Cole with their project which is going to take place on Information Night at the cafeteria of our school or on January because today we talked to Mrs. Hiranaka and told her about our project. But she isn't the one who takes care of that, Mrs.Stark is the one who does. She was absent today but we might be able to ask her tomorrow and see if we can do the day care project on Information Night or on January when the last Information Night is going to take place. That is all I am planning to do for my Independent Projects so far.

Proposal for Lead Project #2
Executive Summary:
So my project that I am going to be working on is about cleaning up the campus of Aviation High School or a road that is nearby the school. The objective of this project is to make the community a cleaner place to live in and help the environment not get polluted by the garbage people throw on roads and school. The expected outcome of the project is to get the school grounds cleaned up or a road that is close to the school. We want the community to get rid of littering because it is a bad habit to get into and a bad habit to quit. The materials we will need to make this a succesful project are: gloves, trash bags, people who are willing to help, money, trash pickers. The methods we are going to do are two or three people will work on the back of the school and then the other two or three people will clean the front of the school. If we do the part where we clean a road instead of the school then we can split the job by two or three of us doing one half of the road while the other group does the other half, and we can all meet at the middle of the road when we are finished.
Need:
What we will need to make this project successful is enthusiastic people who are willing to give their time to help clean up the community they live in. The significance for this project is to get a group of five to six persons to help clean up the school of Aviation High School or a road nearby the school. The purpose is to help the community by making it a cleaner place to live. The materials that are needed will be: a bag of gloves, trash bags, and trash picker. This will benefit the school and the community because we are cleaning up the community because it will make the place cleaner and a better place to live in. The sponsor should give us the funding because it will be nice if they could give us the materials we need to make this a succesful project and not worry about how we are going to get the materials. The administrator should allow me to complete this project on school grounds because this will also help our school have a cleaner environment and let the students realize that littering is not good. This will help the students be more responsible about thinking twice about littering and if they see someone litter they should tell them not too.
Objective:
My expected outcome of the project is to get the campus of Aviaiton High School cleaned or a road that is nearby the school. I plan to start on Thanksgiving break or something or the week after Thanksgiving break to give us time to talk to the administrator at our school and see if someone can sponsor us on the materials that will be needed. I plan to do the front grounds of our school or a whole road that is close to the school. Short term objectives will be to get the materials and get permission from the school administrator to clean the grounds at Aviation High School or a road that is close to the school.
Method:
I will achieve the objectives I have established by talking to other people who might be interested in helping me out in advance. I can also get the materials that are going to be needed as soon as possible. I can ask Mrs.Fitz or the ASB to donate the materials or money so I can buy the materials. The population I am addressing are the students because they are the ones who are going to help me out with this project. Anticipated problems will be addressed by planning everthing in advance and not at the last minute. Also I will keep everyone on task and updated on when the project is going to take place and the time.
Evaluation:
I will know that the project was effective and succesful when the place is cleaned up from all the garbage and looks way cleaner than before. I will connect information to improve the project by maybe cleaning up another road or so if I do the same project again. What could also happen is we could take more time and clean the place better and not leave one single of garbage. I will analyze the data/results by the compliments the people tell the school or the teachers tell us how nice the roads or the school grounds look like.
Qualifications:
I will not be working with any facilities. The equipment that I am hoping that the ASB will have are trash bags, gloves, trash pickers. If I won't be able to get the materials from the ASB from my school and the money to buy the materials then I can probably go to a store or something that sells these things. I am thinking that some of my friends that are not in leadership class might be able to help me if I ask them. I haven't asked any of them yet but I am going to, soon. The people I am going to ask to help me are a qualified to help me complete the job because we all go to the same school and would like to see the place get cleaner. They are also responsible and will stay on task during the project. I am a good candidate for this project because I am really responsible and will make sure that everyone is doing the same amount of work and staying on task. I have done this once when I was volunteering to help the streets of White Center and I guess it was really fun because I knew I was helping out the community with others and that is a good thing. The methods I will use to keep my advisor on touch is tell them what is going on during leadership class or IP project time. If I can't during that time than I can email my advisor about questions I have or how things are going.
Timetable:
I know it will take days to plan this but to finish the project will only take one day, a couple of minutes or hours. Depends on the street we do and how much time it takes us to finish.
Conclusion:
This project is worthwhile because it will help our community be a cleaner place to live in. Also it will us as students understand that littering is bad and the consequences for littering are making the earth polluted and ugly looking for the trash that is being thrown on the roads and not in garbage trash. This project may be a foundation for other students or other potential projects because these kinds of projects could be done in different places and will help that place a better environment to live in. The students can learn how to plan a project like this if they want to in the future by looking at our blog and our comments to each other about what kinds of problems we faced and how we solved them.

Milestone Dates |
-Nov. 29-Dec. 1 :Get money from the ASB and materials needed for the project. |
-Dec. 2 or 3 : Clean up campus grounds of Aviation High school or a road nearby. |
Budget:
The materials won't cost a lot of money because each person will only use one trash bag and two pairs of gloves. My plan to obtain the money needed is to ask the ASB if they could give us the money for the materials.
Materials | Amount Needed | Cost $ |
gloves | A box | $7.00 |
Trash bags | 5/6 | $5.00 |
Trash picker | 5/6 | $20.00 |
