DIY Wellness Activity
Schools & offices throughout the District
* When you come up with something fun, share a picture with us here!
We encourage schools and employees to create intentional opportunities to meet their unique needs and accommodate their interests. Creating your own wellness activities and sharing those experiences with colleagues is a great way to spend Wellness Day! Here are some ideas: play board games, try a recipe together, go on a group walk, share a meal, offer a screening of a PEHP webinar with a group of employees, create a gratitude poster for your school, have a movie watch party, host a "book club" discussion of a podcast or article, or spend time getting to know the people you work with.
As a reminder, substitutes may obtain an honorary ID badge for Health & Wellness Day offers from a District Receptionist at the District Office (7387 S. Campus View Drive, West Jordan) between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m through Feb. 7.

This class will bust both myths once and for all. Whatever your writing goals—publication, permission to explore a creative outlet, or something in between—this class will show you how to unleash your inner writer, provide a roadmap for where to begin, teach you how to blast through writer’s block, and more. You’ve got this! Take it from a bestselling and award-winning author and mother of four whose first ten novels—and six rejected manuscripts before that—were written in the snatches and cracks of motherhood. And how that’s what kept her sane.
