As we explore our Value of Respect during these first weeks of school, we began with a reading entitled The Way of Peace by Swami Shivananda. This passage challenges us to reflect on how we respond to negativity—whether we choose to engage, how we react, and the impact our actions can have.
Our assembly and classroom discussions have been rich and insightful, with students offering thoughtful perspectives on these themes. I encourage you to continue these conversations at home. Here is an example of a follow-up lesson from Third Class, where students expressed through art the impact of embodying these positive qualities.
