Embracing the Season of Gratitude

---

by THE K-12 COUNSELING TEAM | Thursday, Oct 24, 2024

November marks the beginning of a season filled with gratitude and reflection. Research shows that practicing gratitude both at home and school not only boosts happiness but also strengthens emotional health and well-being.

As we gather with friends and family to celebrate this season, it’s the perfect opportunity to reflect together. Engaging in planned activities or practicing gratitude with intention helps our children develop this valuable skill for life.

The Florida Department of Education has developed Resilience Education Parent Guides for all grade levels, filled with fun and meaningful ways to practice gratitude and build resilience at home. We encourage you to explore these guides and enjoy some quality family time this season.
