Two of the best ways to combat stress in uncertain times is to help others and to show gratitude. Thankfulness and assisting others can build our children’s resilience (adults as well) and gives all of us a more profound sense of control, achievement, and optimism in a time that can feel all too helpless. In this spirit, the PTA has developed a new project we are calling Richmond Cares. Throughout May, the PTA will be encouraging students to participate in one small service act each week to support the heroes on the front lines in our community.
Week 1: Teacher Appreciation
Week 2: Thank an Essential Worker
