On December 2nd, 6th graders from Ellsworth Middle School participated in a Courage Retreat conducted by Youth Frontiers. Youth Frontiers, Inc. is a nonprofit organization that partners with schools to create more positive school communities.
“The Youth Frontiers Courage Retreat inspires character by empowering a single grade level of students to act with moral courage and identify the social fears and peer pressures that impede responsible decision-making. The retreat encourages them to take positive risks that make a healthy difference for themselves, their peers and your school. Participation in the retreat results in cognitive, attitudinal and behavioral shifts that decrease students’ distractions to learning and build a positive school community. “- Youth Frontiers
Students arrived at Zion Covenant Church in Ellsworth and were greeted by excited high school mentors. 6th grade students were broken down into small groups and discussed ideas on how to treat each other better, and how to become engaged and stand up for one another. There were large group activities with music and singing, communicating important messages, while encouraging student participation. Interactive games were played throughout the day to break down barriers, increase trust, and encourage teamwork within the 6th grade class. At the end of the day students were asked to focus on an act of courage they will strive for. It was a great day, with a lot of impact! The Courage Retreat is funded in part by a generous grant from the Ellsworth Community School District Foundation. Thank you from the 6th grade students and staff.
