It’s been an honor serving, we’re on pause for the time being. Please stay in touch with our founders @bizeckers888 and @jabezlebret for future updates. Becky will be offering yoga online through @mxidealab and YouTube to stay connected with our youth who need support during this time.

Iraqi Delegation met with our students today - it is awesome to meet with other individuals around the world who care deeply about educating girls.

We went on a ramen outing for a student’s birthday and were surprised to find our fortunes were right on target ... ... ... You are careful and systematic in your business dealings ...

Creating a new educational concept is the challenge we expected and more. One of our parents sent a reminder today by sharing the wisdom of tea messages. It said, Steadiness comes from character and commitment. It’s what it takes to do the hard stuff in life; these are the lessons we impart on our students by nature of how we act when the hard stuff appears. Our families and students give us that strength to forge ahead when things are good, but especially when it’s tough ... - we are overwhelmed with gratitude. ... ... ... ... #forgingahead #commitment #character #strength #sisustrength #sisuperseverance #sisucharacter #strength #wisdomoftea #gratitude #gratefulheart #familiesofsisu #familyvalues #sisusiblings #challengereceived See more

MLK day was spent at Sea World and our lovely teens had a blast! Thank you again to @seaworldsandiego for making this possible! #boardingschool #sisuacademy #seaworld #seaworldsandiego

Never imagined we’d have a pool. We also never imagined all the work it would take to maintain a pool. Grateful to have the help of amazing volunteers who have walked us through the science, chemistry and mechanics of maintaining a pool. Life skills means: Not having to call a pool person if you need to clean out the filter after a storm. We got this! ... ... ... ...... #poolmaintenance #pool101 #poolparty #greentoclean #greentocleanpool #lesliespoolsupply #outofourswamp #broomantics #papersflying #withoutapole #lifeskills #socialemotionallearning #chemistry #phbalance #stellervolunteers #gratefulheart @ San Diego, California See more

GRATITUDE.... this is competency we’re focused on this month. Being tuition-free for our students means lots of outside support. We have so much to be grateful for this past holiday season and throughout the year. We had volunteers come this December to help get our house in order and more coming this semester!! We were gifted a slew of generous donations from gift cards from Subway & target. Hand made cards, blankets socks, face products toiletries supplies, dresser, you nam...e it! We wouldn’t be a school without our donors, we wouldn’t be a fraction of what we are without our community. Thank you to all! Much love and much gratitude for your continued support of our program and students. ... ... ... ... #gratitude #gratitudeattitude #livingwithgratitude #givingthanks #thankfulgratefulblessed #thankful #communitysupported #broughtoyoubyyou #christmasgiving #sisuacademy #studentgratitude #thankfulforcommunity @sjenninspire @amyeandre @barbdoerning @coffee73 @jesnomaybe @muh__shelleeee @my_meemee @susanjmi @acrzyangel1 @corimarie3 @bobbyhundley @micheledinello @ Poway, California

What am amazing day jam packed with volunteers who helped us make the Sisu house even more cheery. Baking tarts with @e3civichigh and @sdyouthservices team members to give out to the Little’s at RB Public Library. And, finally, someone helped us learn how to use the pool! Our swamp is now a clean pool :) .... ... #gritandgrace #poolservice #poolcleaning101 #adulting101 #howtocleanapool #makingtarts #tartshell #sdys #emergencyshelterteam #communitygiving #holidayseason #gratitude
