Enjoy the Little Things this Thanksgiving
Although our Thanksgiving celebrations will be smaller this year, it is in the quiet times that we have an opportunity to reflect and appreciate the little things. For me this has been that my two teenagers' busy lives have slowed just enough for us to enjoy more family time than we would normally. This Thanksgiving, I hope you have a wonderful time sharing a meal, playing games together, or snuggling up with a good book! I wish your family good health and joyful moments, and I am truly grateful for our amazing Cooper Community!!!
Cherry Hill Schools Pivot to Full Remote Instruction

In our SEL lessons this week we read We Are Grateful:Otsaliheliga by Traci Sorell. This story is about gratitude as practiced by the Cherokee Nation. The children had the opportunity to explore ideas of gratitude both in the book and in their personal lives. I was impressed with the deep gratitude the children expressed for their families - and their pets. At Cooper school, we too are grateful for all our Cooper families.
