Faculty do yoga poses on mats in Northside gym

The faculty and staff of Northside Elementary School enjoyed their first ever Health and Wellness Workshop. The event was a huge success. Northside Counselor, Dr. Tyjuana B. Hill, coordinated the workshop and was pleased to offer strategies and tips for reducing stress.

Community representatives from Albany Therapeutic and the YMCA were eager to teach and promote Guided Meditation, The importance of Massage Therapy and The art of YOGA. The faculty and staff were most appreciative and said that they look forward to the next workshop.

Social Emotional Learning is not limited to our students. Our adults also need wellness checks. The faculty and staff were able to receive wellness literature, massage gift cards, door prizes and a well needed opportunity to rest, relax, inhale, exhale and learn something new. Kudos to Dr. Hill and Northside Administration for promoting Health and Wellness.
