The B.M.C. Durfee High School Resiliency For Life (RSL) Program met at the Veterans' Memorial gymnasium on Bank Street on February 29, 2008, to engage in a day of team-building exercises. Resiliency For Life is an alternative program within Durfee High School that is designed to provide more personalized attention to its students. The program provides academic monitoring and after school tutoring as well as life-coaching and team-building activities to its members. As many new members have joined the program since September, the exercises at the armory were used to help members work together better as a community. For more information, contact Paul Leite at 508-675-8100 or Susan Phenix at 774-266-6540.
