LYFE Clubs - One way students will feel encouraged in their decisions to lead healthy and productive lifestyles is by being around other students who are making the same choice. Consider starting a LYFE Club in your school today. Please contact our office if you would like more information on how to start a LYFE Club at your school today.
School Officials
Curriculum Implementation - We would like for you to consider implementing a youth development curriculum in your schools. We would like to work with your teachers in curriculum trainings so they will be well informed on the material. Please contact our office if you would like more information on how to implement a curriculum.
Dear Students, Teachers, and Volunteers!
As I travel our great state and visit with the people who make Louisiana unique, I have the pleasure of visiting with our future leaders. These 12-18 year old junior high and high school students have the unbelievable potential to lead our state into times of prosperity and success. Along with the potential that I see in these young people, I see the obstacles that Louisiana’s youth face. Every day these youth face negative peer pressures and increased temptations for at-risk behaviors in their schools and community. School officials and community leaders are meeting these challenges with positive outlets for the students as well as programs designed to promote positive behaviors in the classroom and at home. In response to the challenges of negative peer pressure and at-risk behaviors in our state, I am joining with the schools and community leaders by initiating within the Governor’s Office “Louisiana Youth of Excellence”, or LYFE.
