Michelle ObamaI loved spending my Saturday with @Oprah and all of the inspiring people who came out for #Oprahs2020VisionTour at Barclays Center. When we make wellness a priority, we’re better able to show up to all areas of our lives. For me, that means sticking to the basics: plenty of sleep, regular exercise, and full, healthy meals. What does wellness mean to you? #SelfcareSunday
The latest development came to be following a unanimous vote by West Contra Costa Unified School District Board.
The school board disclosed that the idea to have the name of the school changed was first proposed by the PTA which sent a letter with the proposal.
Several ad hoc meetings were held and received massive support from parents, community leaders and students.
"We wanted to choose someone on a global level. With a new school and new learning environment, we want our children to think beyond Richmond, to think beyond California, and remind them that they can make a difference locally and globally," Wilson PTA President Maisha Cole revealed.
Michelle ObamaThis week I sat down with @LanaCondor and some #ObamaLeaders for a conversation about the transformative power of girls’ education. No one knows this issue better than these leaders, who work in countries like Cambodia, Indonesia, and Laos to remove the barriers that prevent girls from pursuing their dreams. It was wonderful to hear them share their insights and advice with one another, and I can’t wait to see the good that continues to come from their work in the years ahead. @GirlsOpportunityAlliance
Legit.ng learnt the school will be rebuilt to give it an aesthetic appeal to complement the new name.
It should be noted West Contra Costa elementary school is the second school in California to be named afterthe former First Lady.
The first one is Los Angeles Unified School District's Michelle Obama Elementary.
During a candid interview with media mogul Oprah Winfrey, Michelle said her husband often “ugly cries” and hides his tears behind soot-black shades.
Just like regular parents, the former president gets overwhelmed and proud when his kids surpass his expectations.
Michelle joined Oprah on her 2020 Vision Tour when she decided to let the cat out of the bag. Apparently, when Barack and his gorgeous spouse dropped the kids off to college, he broke down as he watched his baby girls walk away.
