On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we reflect on Dr. King’s powerful legacy of courage, compassion, and commitment to justice. His leadership in the Civil Rights Movement reminds us of the importance of equality, kindness, and standing up for what is right. Let us honor his vision by striving to treat one another with love and respect every day.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”

– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

The Book Fair is just around the corner, and we could still use a few extra hands! If your schedule allows, we’d love your help in making this event a success. Whether it’s setting up, assisting shoppers, or packing up, your time and support make all the difference.

Our Life Skill for this week will focus on "Tolerance: recognize and respect the opinions, practices, or behaviors of others." As a Culturally Aware/Global Citizen we are called to recognize that everyone is equal in God's eyes. This means we strive to constantly and genuinely demonstrate an appreciation and acceptance of diversity. This week, as we observe Martin Luther King, Jr. Day – we will focus on his dream of a world more tolerant than the one he lived in. We know that intolerant behavior can led to discrimination, prejudices, and a “closed mind.” This week, open yourself up to the thoughts and ideas of others!
