“Be You” week, hosted by the ReBel St. Teresa’s chapter, closed out with a “Positive Pats” activity in midday advisory, where students anonymously wrote affirmations to their classmates. The week focused on starting conversations about body image and communication between women.
“The world does a really good job of tearing us down. As women, we need to come together,” ReBel leader Amanda Johnson-Whitcomb said.
This was the first annual “Be You” week, but Johnson plans to continue both the rebel curriculum and the event in the future in order to continue fostering a positive environment.
