Shorewood students recognized; SIS wellness club presents gratitude journal project to board
Summary
At the Feb. 25 meeting Shorewood recognized student athletic achievements and heard a presentation from the Shorewood Intermediate School wellness club, which described weekly gratitude journals, community projects and upcoming wellness activities.
The Shorewood School Board opened its Feb. 25 meeting with recognitions and a student‑group presentation. The board congratulated Esme Clavin for placement on the Wisconsin High School Gymnastics Association Division II honor roll and SHS senior Serenity Metcalfe for reaching 3,000 career points in girls' basketball.
Julie Wells, a school counselor at Shorewood Intermediate School, presented on behalf of the SIS wellness club. Wells said the club meets once a week during flex time and focuses on students' mental and physical well‑being, friendships, and projects to share wellness with the wider school community. "Our wellness club meets, once a week during our flex time, and, they put this together," Wells said, describing the club's gratitude journals, Valentine outreach and plans for a spring bulletin board, yoga sessions and a pizza party with the high‑school wellness club.
Wells told the board the club emphasizes gratitude and community connection; students had written personal notes to staff and Valentine cards to people outside their homes and schools, and the club maintains a rotating wellness board in the SIS hallway. The students prepared small items for the board members that were distributed during the meeting.
The board thanked Wells and the students for the presentation and applauded the recognized athletes. There were no public comments during the meeting.
