Happy Saturday! We are down to the final three weeks of school, and three weeks until I turn the big 3-0! Maybe I have been slightly sentimental about this topic this week, but that's ok. I may be working on a post that expresses my reflections about entering this milestone of life. But for now, I will embrace it! Here is what kept me going this week: 1. Sweet Truths Jennifer Findley hit the nail on the head with this simple sentence; and this was exactly what I need to remember to get me through the last three weeks of school as a school counselor. 2. The Royal Family's Stand for Mental Health I have always thought that Kate Middleton and I would make great friends, and I feel this article solidifies it. Check out HouseBeautful's piece on the Royal family shedding a positive light on the importance of mental health. 3. Pufferfish Students This article hits so close to home. This parent is spot on about some students that we struggle the most with, but also reminds us as educators how we should respond to them. There are days when my students fight back hard, and my response to that is go the punitive and corrective route. However, we must remember that love and kindness is sometimes the path we must choose, simply because that is the path they are rarely shown.
