Stand Up @ Hieghts

Stand Up Day at Heights was another success!  We have been running this program for 3 years now and it is getting better every year.  Last Friday, so many of the students and teachers got right into the spirit of the day by dressing in pink, getting pink fingernails, or tassles put in their hair.  Magic 106.1 joined us for their morning show and let Sergio Stucco and Jessica Hannah experience talking on the air.  We enjoyed the messages delivered by Abolute, concerning various ways in which we can all make life better for ourselves and others.  Accompanied by Bondless, who I feel is a band that really reached out to us all in their music.  And finally, we all enjoyed some entertaining and enjoyable games and experiences in the gym, as we watched or participated in various activities.  It was a hoot to see the male teachers being waxed.  What a scream!

What did you feel about the day?

Do you think that the message is getting out to the students?

Can you think of anything else that we should do next year that would really make the day an even greater success?

What Cool Thing Has Happened To Me...

Recently I have become aware of the retro rock station, BOOM, on 97.3FM.  Wow, I love those tunes of my youth.  Driving to work each day I can sing to those tunes that I am all too familiar with, having learned them so long ago.  These kind of things remind me of the day when I too was young and had no boundries...FREEDOM!

What cool things have happened to you recently that really make your day?
