Lebanon Optimist Club donates $3,500 to Re-Do Day Challenge
At the June 27, 2011 Luncheon, the Lebanon Optimist Club donated $3,500 to the Violence Free Coalition of Warren County in support of character education for students attending Lebanon Junior High School in 2011-2012. Re-Do Day Challenge (Respect Everyone Despite Odds) is a character education program which focuses on attitude, respect, anger management, stereotypes, authenticity, and affirmation. The interactive day encourages students to breakdown the walls which often lead to bullying and other harmful behaviors among some students. The program has been offered at the high school since 2008.
