How about a #SuperintendentSelfie !?! ๐คฉ๐คณ๐ผ
South Carolina Superintendents met at the Governor's Mansion to discuss upcoming budget priorities and how they benefit public education!
Funnels or Filters? Our Mental Health & Wellness Coordinator, Christy Upton, recently spoke with Starr-Iva Middle 8th Graders about the power of filtering information in their daily lives. ๐๐ง ๐ฑ
With so much content coming at themโsocial media, adult topics, and distractionsโitโs essential to understand that their brains arenโt fully developed to handle everything thrown their way.
Students learned that prioritizing their time and filtering out the unhelpful, unhealthy, or overwhelming content can lead to greater focus, success, and overall happiness. Not everything deserves a place in your mindโchoose wisely! โจ
