Grandparents' Day - September 13, 2026
π Happy Grandparents Day! π
Grandparents Day is a special time to celebrate the grandparents and older adults who fill our lives with love, wisdom, stories, and plenty of smiles! Itβs a great reminder to take a moment to say thank you for all the ways they support, encourage, and care for us. Whether near or far, today is a perfect day to let your grandparents know just how GRAND they are! π΅β€οΈπ΄

π Project Wisdom Messages
September: Respecting Ourselves & Others
What is Project Wisdom? Project Wisdom is a character education program where daily messages are broadcast every morning with an overall monthly theme.
Some quotes for this week:
- "The superior man sets a good example to his neighbors. He is considerate of their feelings and their property."
- "When we are respectful of the feelings and the property of others, we set an example for others to follow."
- "The conduct of every person affects, more or less, the happiness of others."
