Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us.

Art

Hands-on creative projects help students be deliberate and present. Art promotes self-discovery, self-expression, and develops healthy social-emotional skills.
