 EarlyAct is a school-wide service club for elementary students from ages 5 to 13.  It is sponsored by one of the local Rotary clubs in the township in which the school is located.  The mission and operation of EarlyAct are closely linked to the ideals of Rotary and provide the foundation and natural succession into Interact.

EarlyAct provides young students the opportunity for gaining an increased awaremess and knowledge of their community and the world.  At a young age, all students can easily be encouraged to be caring and helpful.  Their minds are open to recognize the dignity and worth of each individual which builds respect for others.

EarlyAct also engages students in character-building activities and prepares them for leadership roles to identify and carry out projects which benefit their school, local and global communities.

The purpose of EarlyAct is to provide young students with the opportunities to participate in active citizenship in a culturally diverse democratic society within an interdependent world.

Rockford Rotary is sponsoring an EarlyAct Club at Maude Johnson School.
