2024 Projects

Our students worked to enhance the existing 20th Avenue YMCA outdoor classroom by creating a library and music center in spring of 2024. Outdoor classrooms provide a great opportunity for development in social and emotional intelligence.

Our students partnered with the City of Oshkosh to organize and host BikeOsh, a city-wide biking event. This 8th annual event aims to create a more bike-friendly environment in Oshkosh by encouraging cycling, making Oshkosh a safer and more environmentally friendly place.

Our students partnered with Lyn Schuh to host a fitness fundraiser to raise money for Operational K9 Medical Team of Wisconsin. OPK9 focuses on education and training in prehospital care for operational K9's. Over $2500 was raised for this non-profit organization.

Local history is important and sometimes forgotten about. Two juniors partnered with The Morgan House, a local historic mansion, to change that narrative. To increase engagement among the youth, Anna & Zach hosted an authentic victorian tea party with a twist. They incorporated fun activities and prizes to encourage learning in an exciting way.

Communities students collaborated with NAMI Oshkosh to help plan and prepare the 14th annual NAMI 5K event. NAMI is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing education, advocacy, and support to those affected by mental illness. 

Research says the most important determinant of living a quality life is cultivating close relationships and embracing community. Our juniors collaborated with Park View Health Center to combat senior isolation through intergenerational interaction and engagement. Weekly visits were scheduled to participate in various activities such as games and craft projects. 

Communities students Brannick Larson and Warren Seeley partnered with Community First Credit Union to teach financial literacy classes at Oshkosh North. Their classes taught students how they can be financially successful in their future. They covered the topics of budgeting, loans, credit cards, and retirement planning.

The juniors partnered with Breakwater. Breakwater is a substances abuse coalition in Winnebago County. The purpose of the project was to show high schoolers they can have fun without substances, by hosting a sober party. Our sober party was a Glow in the Dark Game Night. High schoolers walked away from this event with awareness on this topic and a way to have fun without substances.

Our students partnered with the City of Oshkosh to take steps towards making Oshkosh North a Tree Campus. They did this by having a clean up day, nature walk and an Arbor Day

event. 

The juniors partnered with Terra from the Damascus Road Project. Damascus Road is an anti-human trafficking non-profit located in Oshkosh and Las Vegas. The purpose of our project was to educate high schoolers about human trafficking by going into classrooms and hosting an art event. We went into freshman health classes at Oshkosh North High School with Terra to educate students. We also hosted an art event during school time at North where students learned through art. With these multiple education strategies students learned about trafficking red flags and how to get help for themselves or a loved one.
