 Students are required to perform 26 deeds (or 26 hours of deeds) in or for the community.  This year we will strive to help student plan more deeds, but most of the deed will still need to be completed after school.

 Optional Saturday Deed opportunities (Double Deeds!) will be communicated throughout the program. These will be held on Saturdays and will be completely optional for students to participate. We hope to do 3 of these this year.

 If you are unsure about a Deed, contact the Read, Deed, Run team.

Record the Deed – Where did you go? What did you do?

Remember: Deeds are done outside your home; for your neighbors or people/organizations in our community.

Deed Location: Where was it?

Deed: What did you do?

How long did it take?
