Help Start a Yoga Club at DLE

Ms. Vaughn and Ms. Shakib are hoping to start a yoga club for our students at Leonetti! But in order to do so, a 200-hour training session called Breathe for Change is required. Breathe for Change is an amazing program that combines not only yoga, but also Social Emotional Learning, and the hope is to bring these strategies back to our campus to share with staff and students.

Ms. Vaughn is currently raising funds to attend the training which costs around $2,000. Should you feel inclined to contribute, please learn more at the link below. Contributions accepted until September 7. Note: This is not required by DLE to run a club. These teachers are doing it solely as a personal growth opportunity.

Hearts of Gold

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. DLE encourages students to show their support by wearing gold or yellow every Wednesday in September.

This year, students will be participating in a Gold Stroll walk at the beginning of their PE outclass time to honor those students who have fought or continue to fight pediatric cancer.

On September 16, all students and staff can dress up as their favorite superhero to honor those students who continue their fight or have fought pediatric cancer. They are true heroes!

There is also a community event being planned, click here for more information.
