Louis Boldt presented Rotarians with more information about Early Act First Knight (EAFK), and Rotary International program for elementary and middle school students. Mr. Boldt shared success stories of the EAFK program in the Victoria schools, which was implemented 3 years ago and is sponsored by Victoria's three Rotary Clubs. The purpose of EAFK is to teach students service about self, educate them about the virtues, and recite the 4-Way Test each day. Schools that spend 10 mintues a day using the EAFK program as part of their character building curriculum have seen a significant drop in disciplinary problems, an increased involvement of students in service projects, and enthusiastic support from family members. For more information about Early Act First Knight, please contact Bridget Markwood, our EAFK Chair, and visit: www.eafk.org.
