Our Sharing Assemblies today focused on the character trait of "empathy". It is really impressive to hear the older students present their thoughts on what empathy means to them. It can be a hard concept to understand, but the students really do begin to understand what it means to really "walk in someones shoes" as they get older. Please follow up with these discussions at home also.
One way to really understand this concept is through the act of sharing with another person who is less fortunate. The students are learning about our Community Outreach drive for the holiday season as the toys and food are coming in quickly. We will be delivering our gifts on December 10th. We thank you for your community support!
