 | Love the Skin You're In Posted on 09/29/2019 In our digital age, girls are confronted daily with media images that can be unrealistic and harmful. This disadvantages girls in the journey to become successful in life and advocates for their own well-being. Love the Skin You’re In is a presentation being offered at Branciforte Middle School that helps girls evaluate their social media lives and how this impacts their confidence and self-worth, relationships, future aspirations and community. It is a powerful workshop to inspire girls to value their voices, imaginations and connectedness with each other. We are exceptionally lucky to be able to offer this event. We are asking every Branciforte girl to consider attending this workshop being held AFTER SCHOOL on Friday, October 4th at 3:15 in the Branciforte Middle School gymnasium. The presentation will go until 4:45, so bring a snack and plan to be inspired by this life-changing event! Hope to see you there! Girls from other middle schools may attend for free with a student ID, if space is available.
