FROM MRS. MUNSON

            These past few weeks as we focused on what we are grateful for, remember that expressing gratitude goes beyond just being thankful, it is an important skill that can help build and strengthen relationships. Learning to look for things to be thankful for is just one way you can help your student with cultivating gratitude. Developing a mindset of gratitude is important to learn at any age. For more information and ways to help your student live a life on gratitude and thankfulness:
