Hello PS Families,
Welcome to a new month of our Counseling Corner cycle. This month we will be practicing and learning about PERSEVERANCE. Feel free to share with us how you as a family practice PERSEVERNACE throughout the month. You can send pictures, videos and stories of you carrying out this month’s PurposeFull Pursuits as a family. You can also send us other ways of how you showed this value. Please send these to vemartinez@cng.edu. These will be published in the CCN at the end of the month to show pride for our Character Strong students! Hooray!
Sincerely,
Li, Lau, Juli and Vero
