Watching them take ownership of the initiative has been incredibly rewarding. They've embraced the opportunity to develop leadership skills, and it's clear that they're learning the value of communication, organization, and empathy through this experience. Our school community has responded positively, with more students participating in the wellness activities each day.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, the students are working hard to continue the momentum from Wellness Week. They're planning follow-up events and workshops to keep the conversation going about mental health, while also creating ongoing opportunities for peer support.
