It’s soon to be standardized test time at LES (Lakeland Elementary School) and staff is offering a new program for stress reduction and relaxation.
Susan Rice Noah, RN and coordinated school health supervisor for the Lakeland School System (LSS), said, “We have piloted a “Mindfulness and Yoga Program” for all 3rd and 4th grades at LES, which has been all last week and will conclude Friday (3.29.19) during students PE class.”
Of the two-week program, she said, “We hope that it will help students with stress reduction and relaxation for the upcoming testing period, and beyond.”
