We were concerned our community was losing the “fun” aspect of being a part of the Patriot Nation. In an effort to maintain our community, we’ve developed a virtual “after school” program. Just one activity per day that anyone can be a part of. These are led by our upper school students (in return they get community service hours) and some of our athletic trainers. Activities range from 20-40 minutes and include art, sign language, meditation, exercise, and fun Friday challenges. Monday – Thursday at 4:00 pm students can log into a zoom meeting and the leader will lead them through the activity. Not only does this connect our community but it also connects students across divisions.
