Today a student hugged me after her mediation with another peer. To watch students leave my office feeling more relieved and hopeful is so rewarding. We are always working on peace and respect!
4 trophies and 2 individual medals!! Our 8th grade band and choir came home from Music in the Parks with so much to celebrate!! After a day at Dorney Park I on the other hand cannot wait for a heating pad and foot massager!
About 2 times a year I teach a “guidance lesson” and EVERY TIME I leave those classes thinking there is no way I could teach 6 periods a day, 184 days a year. Teaching truly is a super power for only the most special of people. Thank you teachers! Especially my WRMS coworkers ❤️
Thank you to Ms. Fabrocini for coming to Brookside and speaking to our 5th graders about their transition to 6th grade they are SO excited !!! @Caitlinfab@BrooksideWWRSD
This weekend @ComfortZoneCamp we used @bretteldredge song Where The Light Meets The Sea at our bonfire to remember all our loved ones who passed away. This song touched one girl’s heart so much she used it to honor her grief at memorial service in front of friends and family. 💞
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.
