You will begin seeing this symbol quite a bit around Banford. It symbolizes the Positivity Project. Banford will be implementing this program throughout the year. It empowers America's youth to build strong relationships by seeing the character strengths in themselves and others.

Each week we will learn about, and work on displaying, each one of the 24 character traits. Today we started with what exactly it means to understand how other people matter. The hashtag #otherpeoplematter will be an important reminder throughout the year to think of others and display these character traits on a daily basis. 

Each day we will spend a minimum of 10 minutes to reinforce the weekly characteristic. Please remember to ask your child about it.
