Angelo's Girls on the Run Leader Highlighted in Boston Magazine
Please share in this great acknowledgement in Boston Magazine of GIRLS ON THE RUN, an after-school program at the Angelo School led by Grade 5 teacher, Suzanne O'Connor. The mission serves to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. Mrs. O’Connell and one of our wonderful students were highlighted at an event at the Omni Parker House on Nov. 8, 2018.
The team of eight volunteers lead by Suzanne O'Connor, who received Superintendent’s Red Apple Awards last year, includes Laura Corndell, Amy Rainone, Teresa Daley, Joanne Ritz (Grade 4 teachers), Kaitlyn Norwood, Adjustment Counselor, Meghan Robbins-Tchulieu, Art teacher and Lisa Mather, Cafeteria Manager. They have given their time, heart and energy to make a true impact on the lives of these students.
The 10 week after-school program encourages positive emotional, social, mental and physical development. Participants explore and discuss their own beliefs around experiences and challenges girls face at this age. They also develop important strategies and skills to help them navigate life experiences. Physical activity is woven into the program to inspire an appreciation of fitness and to build habits that lead to a lifetime of health. The girls, who each received a new pair of sneakers, participated in a Girls on the Run 5K event on June 9, 2018, in Hopkinton, MA., the culmination of the curriculum. Completing the 5K gave the girls a tangible understanding of the confidence that comes through accomplishment, as well as a framework for setting and achieving life goals.
