April is off to a fantastic start with beautiful weather, and it’s been a joy to see our students enjoying the outdoors! Their energy and excitement truly brighten the day.
As we move through the month, we’re gearing up for MAP testing. It starts the last week of April. The end of April also brings a variety of exciting field trips. The end of the school year is always a busy time, but it’s wonderful to see everything coming together.
This month, we are focusing on the character trait of inclusiveness. Inclusiveness means welcoming and respecting everyone, no matter their differences. It’s about fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and supported. By practicing inclusiveness, we help others feel seen and heard, strengthening our sense of community and connection. But inclusiveness isn’t just about how we treat others—it’s also about how we treat ourselves. Be kind to yourself, just as you would be to a friend. Avoid negative self-talk, and instead, practice self-encouragement and gratitude. If you wouldn’t say something unkind to a good neighbor, don’t say it to yourself!
Let’s make April a month of kindness, connection, and appreciation! 💙
