A Message to our Parents and Teachers.
Teachers and Families:
Do you know what teachers and parents have in common? They are both exhausted by the end of the evening, every day. The role of parenting, and also educating a child is a job that takes a lot of patience, care and also a lot of love. Let's start off this January with talking to our children and students about Kindness.
Very simply, let us ask: Do your actions really reflect your heart??

The Most Inspiring Speech: The Wisdom of a Third Grade Dropout Will Change Your Life | Rick Rigsby
The Wisdom of a Third Grade Dropout: (From the Video)
How you living? “Advice from a cook”
That you would not judge.
That you would show up early.
That you be kind.
That you make sure that the servant’s towel is huge and used.
That if you do something, do it the right way.
That’s it’s never wrong to do the right thing,
That how you do anything is how you do everything, that way you grow your influence to make an impact. You will honor those that have gone before you.
Seek the wisdom and ask yourself every night. How you living?
