Story Behind the Curve: CATCH My Breath 

• The Catch My Breath program was expanded in October of 2023 to also include 8th grade students. 
• It was taught at 3 out of the 4 Middle Schools in Franklin County and the class was taught over a 4-week span.
• One middle school did not offer the program to their 8th grade students which did affect the overall number of participants. 
• The number of participants can fluctuate in years to come as it is a reflection upon the number of students currently enrolled in 8th grade for Franklin County Public Schools.
