Lugoff Elementary School (LES) is boosting self-esteem and body confidence with their recently formed Girls on the Run program. Girls on the Run is a 501(c)(3) organization created in 1996 by Molly Barker in Charlotte, N.C. The program aims to “inspire young girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident using fun experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.” Girls on the Run, for third- to fifth-graders, and Girls on Track, for girls sixth through eighth grade, serve more than 60,000 girls annually.
