Across the organization, different departments and programs have been participating in IvyCares this month, taking time for activities that create opportunities for staff and students to show care and kindness for themselves and others and to celebrate differences and strengths.
The Speech Language Therapy department worked with students who filled a bulletin board with messages that they wrote about themselves. Students identified their own strengths and thought about positive adjectives to describe themselves.
During the recent professional day, staff in the Endeavors and Aspire programs completed an exercise in which they were asked for words they would use to describe Ivymount School students. The words were collected and turned into word clouds, with the most-mentioned words appearing larger. As the photos show, staff have so many positive ways to describe students, including: friendly, kind, creative, funny, hardworking, compassionate, intelligent, determined, compassionate, thoughtful and more!
