    Focusing on the Positive! Modeling a positive mindset contributes to our students’ health and well-being, as well as their academic success. Try using the practice of affirmations with your kids to focus on the positive. An affirmation is a positive statement you say to yourself about a positive characteristic you embody (I know, I’m using the word positive a lot!). The VIA Classification of 24 Character Strengths is a great tool to use for this practice. Try it and let me know how it goes!

    Please reach out to me for any support your students or family might need.

    My office hours are:
    Tuesdays, Wednesdays and some* Thursdays
    Tuesdays & Thursdays:  8am - 3:50pm
    Wednesdays:  7:30am - 3:20pm

    Always Your School Nurse,

  • Wellness Center

    February 2, 2025

    Mindfulness and meditation are both invaluable skills to develop during a mental health journey. Mindfulness based interventions have been shown to reduce anxiety and depression. There’s also evidence that mindfulness can lower blood pressure and improve sleep. It may even help people cope with physical pain.

    The Wellness Center is now hosting Tranquil Tuesdays every week during lunch to practice meditation and mindfulness as well as encourage students to prioritize their self-care. Encourage your AHS student to drop by the Wellness Center to learn more about mindfulness and reap the benefits that mindfulness can offer.
