Last week, Springville-Griffith Institute High School students had the opportunity to take half the day just to focus on wellness! Wellness is one of five core pillars in the district's strategic plan. Organized by the student-led High School Wellness Committee, students were able to choose courses based on their interests and needs, rotating between stations during three sessions. Some of the sessions got their heart rate up, like human foosball, free time in the weight room, swimming and Ga-Ga Ball in the gym. Others helped them recharge, like yoga, healthy cooking, petting animals, and making stress balls. And others help stimulate their minds, like chess, a scavenger hunt and trying French Impressionism, and so much more.

Recently, our high school agriculture students shared some of their knowledge with Colden 4th graders! Avalyn and Miley shared the story of "Lucky Ducky," who is on the hunt for a four-leaf clover. Then the students were able to plant their own clovers in the hopes of finding their own lucky four-leaf clover. They added dirt, seeds and water to cups before placing them on the windowsill to grow. Before the older student left, they answered questions about agriculture and FFA.
