Philosophical Statement

The THUNDERBIRD AWARD is the highest, most prestigious award a student may earn at Kastner Intermediate School. This honor is available to seventh and eighth grade students and is awarded at the end of the year at the Principal’s Awards Reception.

The criteria for earning this award reflects a broad base of participation, achievement, and service. To earn the THUNDERBIRD AWARD, a student must earn a minimum of points in four distinct categories:

● MIND – Scholarship

● MIND – Co-Curricular

● BODY – Physical Activity and Effort ● SPIRIT – Personal Service

The purpose of this award is to recognize these well-rounded individuals who exemplify the qualities that Kastner Intermediate School hopes to foster, in all its students:

(1) the desire for self-improvement

(2) dedication and commitment in reaching goals (3) concern for and service to others
(4) the willingness to be a positive role model to others.

It is our hope that students will actively pursue this award, making it a part of their planning for their total school experience. Whether or not the student receives the award, striving for it will hopefully enrich and enhance his/her educational foundation.

Finally, we should all remember that this award is constantly in a state of transition because of changing circumstances at the state, district, and school levels. Kastner staff reserves the right to modify this award as needed during the school year.

SPIRIT - CHARACTER EDUCATION Personal Service to Others

School Service
(Signed off by Mr. Castle J-5 After veri ication of completed documentation)
One point (a maximum of 5 points) will be awarded for documented school service either at Kastner Intermediate or a CW Area school in increments of 5 hours. For example, a student who has provided 5 hours of documented school service would receive one point, another point would be awarded for hours of service that equal 10 hours, continuing up to 5 points for 25 hours of service. School service activities are to be completed outside of a student’s regularly scheduled coursework. (Work used as “extra credit” will not count as service hours toward this award.)

Note: One of the easiest ways to earn School Service hours is to call our area Clovis West Area Elementary schools (Pinedale, Liberty, Valley Oak, Maple Creek, Lincoln, Nelson, Ft. Washington and also Clovis West High School, or even Clovis Swim Club) to see when their carnivals, movie nights, drama productions or other events on campus are taking place. You may be able to volunteer and help with setting up chairs, helping at booths, or anything else they may help with. Clovis Uni ied always has sporting events going on. Our annual Track Meet at Veterans Memorial Stadium (BHS) or even the Doc B Wrestling Tournament, to volunteer for services there as well. You can call Clovis High School during the wrestling Tournament for details, usually this event takes place during the winter break, call Clovis High School for details. You can also check in Lightning to see when those events are taking place so you can earn school service, this would also count as community service. Kastner has Dances, Performances, Sports, and other special events you may volunteer to help at as well, check with Mr. Castle, and also check with our Athletic Coaches to see if there are needs for assistance. The library always needs help, check with Mrs. Bukilica. Students who serve as a Teacher Assistant (TA) during their elective class earn a grade for the class. These students must earn School Service points outside of their regular TA elective class time.

Students earning points under this category must submit a completed School Service Form (See form on pages 23 and 24).	Your form will be reviewed by teachers, and administrators, to determine if the activity quali ies for points in this area (maximum of
 ive points possible per year).

Volunteered time must be provided to the school, or to an individual school staff member, outside of regular school hours, without compensation to the student. All Clovis West area schools qualify for school service. All hours must be logged on the School Service Form and a faculty member or advisor must verify the nature of service provided and the total number of hours logged on the Service Sheet.

**It is recommended that students speak to their Cluster Of ice early in the school year to verify if the time they plan on providing would qualify as true “School Service”. Students should not assume any activity automatically quali ies.

19 | Page

Community Service

One point (A maximum of 5 points) will be awarded for each 5 hours of documented community service. (5 hours = 1 point) For example, a student who has provided 5 hours of documented community service would receive one point; another point would be awarded for hours of service equaling 10 hours, continuing up to 5 points for 25+ hours of service. Community service activities might include, but are not limited to:

✔ Boy or Girl Scouts activities that provide members the opportunity to volunteer their time at an event without pay or compensation. This does not include regular
weekly meetings.

✔ Community or church groups that provide members the opportunity to volunteer their time at an event without pay or compensation, an example could be ‘World

Changers’, they do community clean up and simple yard work, house painting or

cleaning with a youth group at your local church.

✔ Volunteering at a local hospital or other health organization, when permitted. Reading to the elderly in retirement communities.

✔ Volunteering at a school site, including Clovis West Feeder Schools (hours must be “declared” as Community Service and not repeated for School Service hours).

✔ Volunteering for a health-related telethon, march/run, etc. (i.e., March of Dimes, Muscular Dystrophy, United Cerebral Palsy, etc.)

✔ Volunteering at an animal shelter, to feed, clean cages, or help at the shelter under the supervision of the professionals that work there.

✔ Making or collecting items (toiletries) for homeless shelters, or people in need (i.e., Marjaree Mason Center, Poverello House, Fresno Mission, Terry’s House, Ronald

McDonald House, Habitat for Humanity).

**Examples of what DOES NOT qualify as Community Service:

Working at a family member’s business, babysitting, because this is not a service to the community, you are being paid to do this. If you help a neighbor, who may be unable to do things for themselves, this would be considered community service, you are ‘serving’, or ‘volunteering’ to serve another person, or persons.

Students earning points under this category must submit a completed Community Service Form. (Need more forms? See Mrs. Calderon in the Lightning Cluster Office). Your form will be reviewed by teachers, and administrators, if necessary, to determine if the activity qualifies for points in this area (maximum of 5 points (25 hours) possible per year).

(community service continued from previous page)

Note of Clarification Concerning Community Service Points

Volunteered time must be provided to a “non-profit” organization without compensation to the student. All hours must be logged on the Community Service Form and a NON-FAMILY supervisor or advisor must verify the nature of service provided and the total number of hours logged.

It is recommended that students speak to their Learning Director or Cluster GIS early in the school year to verify if the time they plan on providing would qualify as true “Community Service”. Students should not assume an activity automatically qualifies.

Points Needed in SPIRIT Category = 6 points

*Additional Points Required*

•	Additional Points

If students earn the minimum number of points required in each category, they would have earned 24 points. This is not enough points to earn the Thunderbird Award. This is where the extracurricular; School Service and Community Service points add those extra points to qualify for the award.
(1 point per 5 hours - for School Service and Community Service.) Students must earn at least 10 additional points to earn the award. These additional points may be earned from any of the categories; however, the
minimum point requirement must be earned in ALL categories. For example, all 34 points cannot be earned in the Mind category. Each category has a minimum point requirement that needs to be met in order to achieve the Thunderbird Award. This is why this particular award is a very notable award at Kastner. This award focuses on the best all-around student, in MIND, BODY, & SPIRIT. Which is the Clovis Unified motto; “Excellence in Mind, Body and Spirit”.
