The Positivity Project Comes to SJHS
Each week, during Monday's seminar students will be experiencing brief grade specific lessons through a character education program called, "The Positivity Project".
What is The Positivity Project?
The Positivity Project (P2) is dedicated to empowering students to build positive relationships and become their best selves. Positive psychology’s 24 character strengths serve as its foundation. Ranging from bravery and perseverance to integrity and gratitude, the character strengths are classified and described in the 800-page book Character Strengths and Virtues. These strengths aren’t about ignoring the negative. Instead, they help us overcome life’s inevitable adversities.
Families are encouraged to follow along with the below calendar as we explore these strengths that are present in all of us. P2 for Families is a great resource that allows families to do that. The password is "p2".
Upcoming Positivity Themes
9/19: Curiosity
9/26: Teamwork
10/3: Open-Mindedness
