By Beth at Southern Schoolhouse
In the days leading up to end-of-grade testing, our team found a meaningful way to lift our students’ spirits and encourage them before their tests. Each student received a heartfelt letter from me (their reading teacher) and a surprise note from a family member, sealed in an envelope with a motivational sticker and placed on their desk the morning of the big test. This simple gesture reminded them they are seen, supported, and believed in. To watch the full reel, visit us on IG, FB, Tiktok and YouTube.
