The S.O.A.R.
Supporting Our Amazing and Resilient Students!
ISSUE #3
What's Your Natural High?
Natural High was founded by entrepreneur Jon Sundt, who lost both of his brothers to drug addiction. After the loss, Jon became determined to turn this experience into positive change and made the decision to spend the rest of his life helping young people make better choices. He realized that simply shifting the way we engage youth could dispel the myth around drugs and alcohol. He began traveling to schools with local influencers and a slide projector at his side, hoping that his story could help save even one life. Your Natural High is the activity that uplifts, inspires and motivates you. Check out this video for some examples.
