Students from the “HYPE” group at Whale Branch Early College High School recently visited Whale Branch Elementary School. HYPE stands for Healthy Young People Empowerment, and the project promotes healthy decision making, positive peer communication, healthy relationships, culture and tradition, physical activity and focus on empowerment while encouraging students to think, learn, act, share and evaluate their own neighborhoods. This group of high school students will begin mentoring students at the elementary school level. Above is pictured members of the HYPE group with Whale Branch Elementary School principal Lynn Singleton.
