Help inspire the next generation of empowered and healthy young women! SV will again participate in Go Girls Go, a program for girls in 4th-6th grades that is designed to improve the health and well-being for girls at one of the most vulnerable times of their lives. The program includes activities and group work that help the girls develop leadership and communication skills, improve self-esteem, build friendships, and increase their physical activity with the ultimate goal of running a 5k. This year's 5k will be Saturday, May 16 and is an opportunity for the girls, coaches, and mentors to celebrate girls’ fitness and personal growth developed throughout the program. At this time we are in need of mentors to commit to volunteering once or twice per week after school (3:30-5:00 pm, Tuesdays and Thursdays) at Summitview. Clearances are required (Go Girls Go will help). Summitview's session Our next session is March 5 - May 19th and our spring 2020 Go Girls Go! 5k is Saturday, May 16th at 9am!

Under the leadership of our district's Pre-K Coordinator, Mrs. Nemzek, learners in Mrs. Garofalo's and Mrs. Cook's kindergarten classes have been participating in a social and emotional program based on the TV show Mr. Rogers. This program is available to us through St. Vincent College's Fred Rogers Center for Early Learning. Recently, Mrs. Cook's learners talked about feelings... what they are, feeling words and appropriate ways to react to their feelings. Today’s lesson was all about “our shine” and how we can grow our own shine as well as help others grow their’s.
