LS has “Attitude of Gratitude”

The final chapel service of the year for the kindergarten, prefirst, and first grade students on May 14 was planned with an “attitude of gratitude.” The students sang along with a reading of “This Land is Your Land” and listened intently to a story told by Director of Religious Studies, Character, and Services John Grega about the importance of saying “thank you.” When the story ended, the kindergartners turned to face the other students and recited a prayer, "I'm thankful for..." which they also shared in sign language. Then, students from the other classes expressed their thanks for their friends, the McDonogh community, teachers, bus drivers, classmates, and more. At the conclusion of the program, the children were presented with “Thank You” cards and encouraged to use them to thank someone on campus for a special boost this year.
