Dear Friend of Wellness:
It is time to start moving forward and getting ready to set this 2020 year to a close and open our hearts with great hope for a better year in 2021.
2020 provided us all with unexpected and unprecedented challenges and also many silver-lining situations that were faced with strength, care, courage, dignity, compassion, faith, fortitude, resiliency, creativity, intuition, flexibility, agility, generosity, and most importantly with lots of LOVE.
8 Ways to Look for the Silver Lining in Life:
- Remember That You Are Loved. The very first way to find the silver lining is to remind yourself that you are loved!
- Always Move Forward...
- Go Out and Experience Life and Embrace It...
- Start Fresh and Do Not Beat Yourself Up...
- Create Positivity Around You...
- Keep Trying and Never Give Up...
- Stress Less and Have FUN...
-
and most important - Find Your VALUE and share it with the world!
Let's stand tall, focused, ready, and steadfast to continue supporting and practicing the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child model in our District with equity and good sense in everything we do so that our...students, staff, and community can reach their full potential.
Continue being a beacon of LIGHT for all the children
and each other...
let's grow STRONGER together!
Be healthy and safe ~ Paula

WINTER BREAK FOOD DISTRIBUTION |

In order to ensure that children have the food they need when distribution sites are closed during the Winter Break, School Food Service will provide a pantry-style box with 16 days worth of food during grab-and-go distribution and during dismissal in select parent pickup lines on Thursday, December 17th.

"Thursday is going to be a record breaking day for School Food Service and we will have such a positive impact on our kids and families." said Mrs. Allison Monbleau, Director, School Food Service Department.
