National Children’s Grief Awareness Day is observed this Thursday to honor those who have experienced loss and to bring attention to the importance of understanding and supporting the grieving and healing process.
Tomorrow, we will kick off our week of activities with the Wall of Support, located in the cafeteria. Please stop by during your lunch period to write a message of encouragement for those who are grieving or in memory of someone who has passed away.
Remember to bring your coins or dollars to contribute to your Structured Study collection box for our Light in the Darkness Fundraiser—and help your class win a mystery prize! Your donations will directly support KMMS students and families who have experienced significant loss or hardship.
You’ll also notice butterflies displayed around the building this week. Take a moment to read their powerful messages as reminders of hope, strength, and healing through grief.
