HEALTHY MINDS IN HEALTHY BODIES: THE CASE FOR IMPLEMENTING A FULL
PHYSICAL EDUCATION CURRICULUM IN NEW YORK CITY’S PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Dear Members,
You are invited to the 2013 Quality of Life Student Exhibition being held on Saturday, March 9th, 2013 at 74 Trinity Place, Lower Manhattan New York.
The Quality of Life Program is an initiative of W!SE (Working in Support of Education) that teaches high school students to become social entrepreneurs by conducting research to solve real-world problems. Students identify an important social issue, devise research tools, and develop innovative and feasible solutions based on their findings. QL has empowered thousands of public high school students in New York City to become productive citizens actively making positive changes in their communities.
A number of student proposals have been implemented and have benefited our city, including a nationally-recognized high school community service program teaching low-income senior citizens to use the Internet; a prostate cancer awareness campaign with accompanying website and video public service announcement; and a program which has received over one million dollars in funding to bring private SAT preparation to thousands of low-income public school students at no-cost. Furthermore, a student from 2010 partnered with her local councilman to develop an anonymous reporting system for students who are bullied.
The purpose of the Student Exhibition is to help students meet professionals in the field and further understand how to translate their community research findings into strategies for real social change. We are inviting your organization because students have chosen topics that relate to the mission of your work.
We are asking organizations to bring youth staff (if possible), and organizational promotional/informational materials for display and/or distribution. This is a wonderful opportunity to reach young people committed to making a change in their communities, and to network with other organizations.
The event will take place between 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM at 74 Trinity Place, lower Manhattan.
Thank You
