Legacy & Life Reflections: Honoring Your Story - OAP 802-84061

Guides students through the meaningful process of looking back on their lives — the joys, challenges, lessons, and defining moments. Through writing prompts, storytelling, and guided reflection, students create a personal “life memoir” or legacy project that honors who they are and what they’ve lived through. The class celebrates resilience, wisdom, and the beauty of a life fully lived. Students leave with a deeper sense of pride, clarity, and purpose, along with a written legacy they can share with loved ones.
