It has been quite a busy week for Woodsville High School Jag students. The first visit of the week was made by Mr. Gerald Winn.
Mr. Winn shared with the JAG seniors the art of public speaking in preparation for this years senior events. The seniors were asked to stand in front of the group and to speak upon a specific topic in an exercise that Mr. Winn claims to be the number one way to become comfortable speaking in front of larger groups. He shared many tips, and techniques to help each student feel more comfortable and confident in the spotlight. The second visit of the week was made by Miss New Hampshire(Regan Hartley)
who talked to all of the JAG students at Woodsville High School about the effects of bullying. She shared her unpleasant experiences with bullies as a teenager, and how she overcame their unprovoked anger and jealousy.
She shared with the students her experiences as Miss New Hampshire, and the road that led her to her career. Many students took the opportunity to ask questions about her trials, and what it takes to become Miss New Hampshire among other things. Though it was a busy week many students appreciated the break from class, and we all gained valuable lessons that can be applied not only to giving speeches, and discovering talents and careers, but to every day life.
