Senior Challenge: Senior Challenge:

Write a Thank you note to someone in the community! Write a Thank you note to someone in the community!

I challenge everyone who reads this message to write a thank you note to someone in the community who you see doing great things around you - the employee at that place who always puts a smile on your face, the bagger at the grocery store who engages you in a conversation, the teacher who believes in you more than you believe in yourself, the nurse who went above and beyond. ... the list goes on and on and we take all these blessings for granted most of the time. Take a minute today to say thank you from the bottom of your heart and encourage someone else - it has more power than you think. Check out the Harvard Health article below.


Be the good you want to see in our community.

Seniors can pick up thank you postcards in the Student Counsel Room or in the Counseling or Main office.
