FLASH
BACK FRIDAY TO LAST WEEK'S JOGATHON & HOMECOMING WEEKEND
Thanks
to everyone's incredible support and the fierce tenacity of our
runners, Jogathon and Homecoming 2015 was a huge success! On Friday,
our young athletes ran 495 miles, completing 4,024 laps -- raising
more than $100,000 for Laguna's athletic and physical education
programs. On Saturday, the students swept homecoming day with
victories across the board! We couldn't have dreamed up a better way
to celebrate the Owls return home!
Special
thanks to our Jogathon Event Chairs Raychel Muenke and Erika Ronchietto and
their team of committed volunteers, for their dedication and
leadership! Together, they created a wonderful community celebration
enjoyed by all.

LAGUNA ALUM AIJA MAYROCK '14 SPEAKS OUT AGAINST
BULLYING
Congratulations to former Laguna student Aija Mayrock
on the publishing of her book, The
Survival Guide to Bullying. The book was largely inspired
by her experience of being relentlessly bullied as a child when
living in New York.
Now a student at NYU, Aija stopped by The View this week to speak out
against bullying and share her new book with viewers.
Laguna is so proud of you, Aija--for moving past your difficulties
and providing hope to those who need it most.

LAGUNA'S RYAN EMMONS '08 MAKING A BIG SPLASH WITH
WAIAKEA WATER COMPANY
Even Forbes
is talking about it!
Reprinted by Forbes magazine
Bottled water may be one of the most hated players in
the beverage game, but it's one of the most popular drinks among
consumers.
That's where Ryan
Emmons saw his big opportunity: a huge hole in the market
was just waiting to be filled by a company with a trifecta of
socially conscious components.
