Topics:

Physical Activity Participation, Student Leadership,  Teamwork

AG is one of my student Ambassadors for the school. Not only is she a great example for the other students, she has the heart of a lion and will be a great leader. I gave her the task of starting and controlling the "Mighty Milers", our walking/running program. She took off running! She organized when, where, and how the program would work. She walked the playground marking 1/2 mile and mile markers, helped create our cards for the kids to use and keep track of their totals. I just can't tell you what a great role model this young lady is. I am absolutely sure I will be hearing her name in the future as a young leader in the community. It's hard to find those kids that find that passion for giving their all for a cause or just giving their all in anything. A does this every day. I'm so proud of her!

How do you plan to make this Play last during the school year and beyond?

A has started this program; she is mentoring a few fourth graders so that they can continue this program for future Bostic students!
