April Mental Health Spotlight:
Flourishing, Rekindling Passion, and Supporting Well-Being in Education.
April is here, and it brings us the opportunity to shine a light on mental health—a vital aspect of well-being for educators and school staff. This year, we’re embracing the theme of *flourishing*, inspired by the work of Dr. Corey Keyes, who defines flourishing as thriving, finding meaning, and moving beyond survival to truly thrive.
