The first day back to work after a long holiday can be hard, but the staff at Legacy of Educational Excellence (LEE) High School came up with a great idea to get staff moving.

“As part of our staff development, we integrated a “Wellness Hour” into the first day back where teachers had the opportunity to participate in different activities,” said Dance Teacher Tina Alanis.  

Staff could go walking or visit different stations around the campus where they could work out in the weight or cardio rooms, mediate, do yoga or Zumba.

Anyone who participated in at least three 15-minute sessions during the Wellness Hour was put into a drawing for an Apple Watch!

“Personally, it was wonderful seeing my colleagues move, have fun, and most of all take time for themselves,” said Alanis. “Teachers give so much, and we forget to be sure to fill our own cups. I hope that we can do this again and make it a LEE High School tradition.”
