The Youth Leadership Advisory Council (YLAC) for Fort Smith Public School’s School-Based Health Center, has provided comprehensive education to Darby Middle School Physical Education classes. In partnership with the SBHC, they created several informative presentations with voice-overs that focus on “Responsible Personal & Social Behaviors” and “The Power of Physical Education”. These presentations dive into the importance of creating a physical fitness plan that works with each individual’s interests, abilities, and unique needs, as well as each student’s responsibility and contribution towards building a school atmosphere of support, growth, and safety. These YLAC students are impacting campus and community culture every day with their leadership and service.
