During lunch recess, 5th Grade members of the Shoreview Boys’ Club at Euclid's Shoreview Elementary School forfeited their playtime to learn an important life skill from Mr. Johnson - how to tie a tie.The group gathered in the office conference room, where Mr. Johnson, the Assistant Principal at Shoreview and the leader of the Boys’ Club, brought a collection of ties and demonstrated step-by-step how to master the art of properly tying a tie.

The boys eagerly picked out a tie and followed along, practicing the technique and perfecting their skills. For many, it was their first time learning this skill, and Mr. Johnson’s patient guidance made the experience both fun and rewarding.The Shoreview Boys’ Club focuses on building leadership, character and essential skills among its members, and today’s lesson was a perfect example of the club’s mission. By teaching these young men how to tie ties, they not only learned a practical skill but also learned the importance of confidence and professionalism.
