What brings you joy?
Our school just completed a survey. The survey was unique but also very informative. A little over two weeks ago a group of teachers created a hands-on, interactive, board in our front lobby. The board has a bear and a penguin surrounding a question. The words ask, "What brings you joy?" The letters in JOY were large, and a small bucket with markers was left in front of the board. Over the course of the holiday season, kids and staff have written their responses to that simple question, "What brings you joy?" I didn't quite know what to expect. What would be the overwhelming response from 400 youth and their teachers? I figured we would have some toys listed or maybe some food. We do. I thought we would have family and friends listed. We do. More than anything I thought it would be possible we would have expensive items listed. We don't. Each time I walk past the responses, I see something new, but I have yet to see anything
