On Tuesday, Washington Latin hosted its first ever Blood Drive in the gym. Senior Emma Moore and Humanities teacher Bill Clausen helped organize this event. The blood drive was planned to coincide with the monthly ANC meeting and there was also a PFA meeting that same evening. The school met its goal of 30 pints donated, which can save up to 80 lives; because the minimum age for donation is 17, many of the participants were first time donors. On Thursday evening, Latin hosted LearnServe International for their annual Fellows presentations. Former Head of School Martha Cutts is on the board of this organization and attended. There were 175 guests for the event, which occupied the library, MPR, and several classrooms and showcased more than 75 student-directed service projects.
