The 3rd Nine weeks is ending soon.
We know mornings can be tough —but consistent attendance helps students feel confident, connected, and ready to learn.
Our attendance rate is 94.2 %
Let's finish out these Nine weeks strong!
This week is Random Act of Kindness Week!
So, we put up a bulletin board in the cafeteria to encourage our students to commit random acts of kindness.
There are blank hearts on the table so the students can fill out their Random Act of Kindness (RAK) and post it to the board!
RAK can help reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. RAK helps foster social connection and a sense of belonging. Kindness can also be contagious. People who receive RAK are more than likely to pass it on.
Regular RAK can lead to "helpers high" releasing neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine which results in positive feelings of satisfaction and well being! RAK can also lower stress levels, improve relationships and enhance overall mental health!
So let's do it! Let's Commit Random Acts of Kindness this week and have the "feel goods"!
