"Unlock the Treasure in Every Child" - October 8, 2018
Other People Matter!
This week our students dig in deeper to the Other People Matter Mindset.
What is the Other People Matter Mindset? This mindset is taking the time to look beyond ourselves. Recognizing the feelings, love, and care within others. Furthermore, it is important to recognize them as individuals and recognize they matter.
This week we will continue to build this mindset by identifying and appreciating the good in others. Often our days are busy and we are not fully present. But when we stop and take a moment to reflect or see the good in others the world around us changes.
Students this week will be practicing seeing the good in others and being appreciative as they build their other people matter mindset. #OtherBucsMatter #BuccaneerPride

Please use these quotes and discuss with your child what they learn about Open-mindedness this week.
