LT’s PSI Club fills in as bunny

The Lyons Township High School Peaceable Schools Initiative (PSI) Club recently filled more than 150 Easter baskets for needy children at the Off the Streets Club, Chicago’s oldest boys and girls club.

All supplies -- baskets/buckets, toys, books, art supplies, snacks, and more– were donated by LTHS staff, students and community members, including the LT softball team which donated many pre-assembled baskets.

As a thank you to LT, two of the Off the Streets Club members sang; one boy sang a gospel song and the other one performed a rap from Hamilton.

PSI Club creates a positive, comfortable, and supportive learning environment for all. Through improved conflict resolution and communication skills of students and staff alike, LT works together to improve the way conflict is handled in our school and community.

The Off the Street Club in West Garfield Park provides a safe, supportive environment where the neighborhood's 4- to 18-year-olds can do their homework or play computer games in the Learning Center; perform plays in the Performing Arts Center; dance, roller skate, sing, and play musical instruments; express themselves through arts and crafts and woodshop; and more.
