Action for Happiness Calendar
We need each other more than ever right now! This month let's focus on reaching out to connect with
others and doing our best to be a good friend. Our acts of kindness and connection ripple out and impact so
many more people than we realize - and they also boost our own happy hormones too! In stressful times
people around us may be feeling the strain, so let's try to keep calm, take time to listen and show compassion.

Promoting Kindness
Middle school can be a difficult time for students when it comes to peer relationships. We work hard to make
sure that students are kind to one another and to staff. Talking to your kids about being kind and modeling
that behavior at home is helpful. Here are some ideas on how to add kindness to family routines.
