The NEVER GIVE UP Assembly had a powerful message for our students. The presenter, Dari Olsen, shared how life is full of challenges, obstacles, and often setbacks. Because of these inevitable challenges, she gave the students ideas and takeaways on empowering themselves during these situations. Overall, the students were able to understand that success won't come easily and one must persevere and work hard to truly achieve great things! ~ Seth Korman- Middle School Principal
Dari recently did a Student Success Skills program at my college and it strongly impacted my view on wellbeing, helping me recognize the unhelpful ways I was coping with anxiety and introducing me to healthier more effective coping skills. I was able to focus on the cause of my struggles and learn more about the effect this was having on my everyday life.
