In 2021, I was honored to be entrusted by our Principal with the role of Special Education Teacher and given the opportunity to establish and manage the school’s boxing club. Since its inception, the boxing club has served as a multi-functional space, promoting fitness, stress relief, and emotional well-being for both staff and students.

The club provides a constructive outlet where individuals can channel stress and pent-up emotions through physical activity, such as utilizing the heavy bag. For students identified as at-risk, the boxing club offers a structured environment that fosters discipline and focus. It also serves as a proactive tool, encouraging academic engagement and supporting a conflict-free atmosphere across the school.

Staff members actively promote participation in the club, often recommending students to join as a means of improving concentration and maintaining positive behaviors. Through this collective effort, the boxing club has become a vital resource in the school community, contributing to the personal and academic growth of our students.
