A Note From Mrs. Mathe
This week my daughter Abby came home wanting to show me the video from one of her Positivity Project lessons last week. When we watched the video together I realized how much it matched our staff theme for the year which is "Be the change you want to see in the world". Even at the ripe young age of 7, she began to think about ways she could change the world around her. Below is the video. I encourage you to take a minute to watch it as a family and come up with a plan for what you can do together to change the world. If we all did a little something, that will add up to a big something, and what a great difference that could make in our world and community!
