In honor of our November character trait - Gratitude - we wanted to share some info from our CharacterStrong curriculum to help capture the essence of why gratitude is so powerful and important.

🍂💛Why is Gratitude So Important?💛🍂
🌟Improved Mental Health: Practicing gratitude shifts your mindset toward positivity, helping reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
🌟Enhanced Relationships: Expressing appreciation strengthens connections by fostering trust, connection, and reciprocity with others.
🌟Health Benefits: Gratitude lowers stress, improves sleep, and supports overall physical well-being.
🌟Generosity & Altruism: Feeling thankful often inspires people to pay it forward through acts of kindness and compassion.
🌟Positive Social Impact: Grateful individuals tend to contribute more to their communities, helping build a kinder and more empathetic society.

Isn't that fabulous?! Have some conversations with your student about what they are grateful for! Here are some ideas for how to get those chats going!

The 6th Grade students have been having a "sweet" time.

To celebrate finishing the Roald Dahl and Narrative units in English Language Arts, Ms. Laughlin's class and Ms. Garzee's class watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory while trying and rating old fashioned and British candy (like Dahl wrote about eating at Mrs. Pratchett's Sweet Shop in his autobiography Boy: Tales of Childhood).

A rainbow over Central Intermediate School today reminds us that sometimes the hardest days bring the most beautiful rewards. We’re learning that growth happens when we do hard things, whether it's in academics, socially, or just getting out of bed to make to to school on time. Keep pushing through those clouds, Titans!

🌍💚 World Mental Health Day – October 10 💚🌍

At Central Intermediate School, we believe that mental health matters just as much as physical health — for our students, staff, and families.

Today, we remind our school community that:
✔️ It's okay to talk about your feelings
✔️ It's okay to ask for help
✔️ It's okay to take a break

Let’s support one another with kindness, empathy, and understanding — not just today, but every day. Together, we can help create a world where mental health is prioritized and stigma is replaced with support. 💬🧠💙

🗓️ This Month’s Trait: RESPONSIBILITY! 🧠💪
Time to step up and show what it means to be responsible — from turning in homework on time 📚 to owning our actions and helping others when we can! All month, we’ll be looking for students who demonstrate this. 👀✨ Here, Mrs. Jacob's class of 5th graders are practicing responsibility by transferring Legos from one end of the line to another; they discussed the importance of working carefully and safely rather than rushing.
