  • For the rest of May, we will learn about Self-Care and Wellness. Join us this May as we prioritize self-care and wellness at school. Let's make a conscious effort to prioritize our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. From mindfulness activities to healthy habits, let's come together to create a supportive and nurturing environment for all. Take a moment for yourself this May and prioritize self-care. Together, we can cultivate a culture of wellness and positivity at our school.
