Jeff Brain Begins To Implement I RESPECT Program
By Louis L.
The Family Foundation School has recently added new activities to the middle school. The two middle school students, Anthony W. and Jimmy S. along with Jeff Brian, Vice President of External Affairs, have created the ‘I RESPECT’ group. The group meets at the end of the school day during the middle school activity periods.
‘I RESPECT’ stands for identity, reality, excellence, significance, purpose, extraordinary, character, and trust. The students from the middle school try to develop these qualities during the activity. The first project that the ‘I RESPECT’ group accomplished was preparing and cooking a pizza and calzone dinner. The students, along with Brain, made their own half meat, half cheese pizza and three different calzones.
The following week the group carved pumpkins. The idea came in part because Anthony had never carved a pumpkin before, yet he had grown this pumpkin on his own. Both Anthony and Jimmy were given kits and picked out designs to put on their pumpkins.
“It was awesome! I had a great time,” said Anthony.
The group is planning to do a different activity every week.
