My Project
I am the creator and sponsor of the WOA Wellness Warriors. As an online school club, we connect virtually twice a month to set goals, learn mental wellness strategies and participate in physical wellness activities. I want to create an opportunity that will bring our students together outdoors during the spring months.
The Wellness Warriors' Garden of Growth will provide students with the tangible resources to plant flowers around our physical school building.
Even though we are online school, we have unique learning opportunities for students to attend in person each week. I am asking for several large planters to place by our front and back doors and several window boxes for students to plant flowers in along with some tools and supplies to get us started. Connecting with nature offers significant mental health benefits such as reducing stress, improving mood, increasing well-being, and even enhanced social connections and self-esteem. The Wellness Warriors will work with me to fill these planters and create an inviting space for students and families. They will also be responsible for caring for the flowers throughout the week.
Planting and caring for flowers will also be a valuable symbol of growth for my club members as they reflect on their progress this year and how they have cultivated their mental and physical well-being.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
