Seco Family,
It's May 1! Just a few weeks left before the end of the school year.
Thank you to Team Rev for providing the fun and inspirational daily emails to help all of us stay connected. Thank you Rachael for the Weekly Wellness.
Our next day to obtain needed materials from your classrooms is Tuesday, May 12. Be sure to sign up for your preferred time slot. I look forward to seeing many of you that day!
Thank you for all of your hard work, especially given all of the challenges we have faced this school year. Take care of yourselves and your families. I miss seeing you all in person. Have a great weekend.
Weekly Wellness
May’s habit of the month is “Celebrate and Appreciate” and the disposition is “Trust”
Individual and collective celebration, as well as the practice of gratitude, is the capstone to the habits to build resilience. Even during hard moments, if we can shift into a stance of appreciation, we’ll build our resilience. Appreciation cultivates our trust in ourselves, in a process, and perhaps in something greater, which helps us respond to the inevitable challenges of life.
Endings are for celebration and appreciation, which lay the foundation for resilience in the days ahead.
Don’t forget to appreciate yourself! Here is a short article with a few tips to begin to practice some self-appreciation!
