DEE Weekly Newsletter
January 7, 2022
This month we’re talking about the virtue of Courage – to help our children be courageous and learn to conquer things that frighten or scare them. Children need reassurance that fear is one of our feelings and to help them understand that it’s okay to feel afraid. Courage isn’t fearlessness, but instead our ability to choose the right thing even when we are scared! The definition we will be talking about is:
Courage: to choose what is good, right, and kind even when it is hard or scary.
Temperance and Good Citizenship Day is January 14, 2022
Observation of Temperance and Good Citizenship Day is meant to promote civics education and peaceful citizen engagement.
“Though many students would hate the idea of their parents making every decision for them, they forget that’s essentially what happens when they don’t vote for themselves. By providing immediate access to registration, we hope to empower students. To remind these young citizens that they have an indispensable voice in shaping the future of our state, nation and world.”
-Secretary of State Kim Wyman
