Monday Message 9/10

Dear Friends and Families of Trinity,

The school year is in full swing, and I am impressed by the commitment of the school board, faculty, staff, parents, and students to making this small school something special and ensuring everyone feels a sense of belonging. Thank you to the PTO for putting on the Back to School Bash; it was an amazing evening of fellowship, friends, and family.

A great example of community in addition to the Back to School Bash is the patience that everyone has demonstrated with our school uniforms. We have all survived the delay, and I want to reiterate that we will grandfather in all uniforms purchased. Parents and students alike have demonstrated a sense of compassion and resilience, and for that I am thankful.

We experience and create all kind of different energies that affect how we feel and what we accomplish throughout our day. I shared with the children last week that what they say and what they do create positive or negative energy. This energy not only impacts how they feel, but how others feel around them. If we all work on creating more positive energy, we will all see improvements in our lives and more things will become possible.

Some ways that help me create positive energy include: listening to music, focusing on gratitude, listening to the children talk, reading, journaling, staying organized, and surrounding myself with positive people. How do you utilize and create positive energy? How do you create a sense of belonging for yourself?

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.” ~Buddha
