How FSL is Helping Students #LoveYourLife
“Five Star has changed my life a lot. Before I was a Five Star leader, I didn’t love my life as much as I do now that I am living the Five Star life. Before I was in Five Star I was always letting people bully me and do things to me that I knew wasn’t right. This year everything changed at my school and my life. Now that I am a leader, people don’t do things to me like bully me or get in fights with me. Sometimes they still do (bully me), but I stand up for myself and I don’t let people hurt me like they did before. It’s been a wonderful experience to be a part of the Five Star community.” – Woodland Student Leader
