Studies show that focusing on gratitude, positive emotions, and shared community can improve mental well-being. To encourage students to consider these ideas, the Health and Wellness Committee has created a rotating bulletin board in the hallway to the left of the Dome. The board is seasonal and interactive, inviting students to share positive messages and take inspiration from items posted. November’s board centered on gratitude, while December’s is about sparkling joy. Future topics will include readjusting to school after a break, spreading kindness, and practicing mindfulness. Ask your kids if they’ve contributed to the board, or stop by and see it for yourself! If you’d like to get involved with projects like this one, consider joining the Health and Wellness Committee. Contact information is available on Dec 4 This Week @TJ Newsletter.
