Declan and Brinley listened to the live Read-a-thon Read-aloud for Village Families with Dr. Rudd, Miss Bower, and Ms. Passero. They really enjoyed the book, The Day the Crayons Quit, by Drew Daywalt @benjaminbrudd @LoraKB13 @1VillageHilton

Happy Mothers' Day from Ashley Warren's kindergarten class at Village! 🌹 Moms were invited to spend this morning getting pampered by their little ones - including manicures, massages, makeup, hair styling, and some special treats. They were really feeling the love! 💕

Todays unified basketball game was a ton of fun. Had the pleasure to meet with good friends Talon and Nate prior to the game with Ryan to hear their thoughts on Unified basketball🫶🫶🤝 #rollcadets @CadetsUnified @HiltonCadets @PrimetimeBall_ @gametime585

Navy SEALs have a saying.

You may find it helpful.

When something sucks, they look at each other and say:

"FULL BENEFIT"

It’s an instant mindset shift.

• Hiking and it starts pouring rain?
• Driving and your car breaks down?
• Working on a project and lost a draft?

FULL BENEFIT.

***

LESSON: Adversity is an opportunity

The message is simple.

Every adversity is an opportunity.

• To grow
• To learn
• To evolve
• To get stronger
• To become better

These moments forge us if we let them.

The next time you're facing something hard, welcome it.

Work through the process.

Learn the lessons.

Reap the full benefit.

What good has negotiating with yourself ever done?

@BethForman4 is a stellar human and teacher. My own values and beliefs on education were shaped and developed through working with her. Proud to know her and have her as a part of our Village!

Our kiddos represented Village so well! It's so special to read the same book as three different schools and it was even more special to have these students share their own personal memories and experiences. #masterpiece #cadets #onevillage

[Hilton CSD @HiltonCSD]

Last night, VE students did a stellar job presenting to the Board about this month’s Three Schools, One Book & how reading the same book – “Masterpiece” by Elise Broach this year – builds a community of readers! #readingforpleasure @benjaminbrudd @LoraKB13
