Spring Break is more than just a Break ⛱
As we approach a much-anticipated spring break, I want to underscore the significance of this time for our children. Spring break isn’t just a pause on the school calendar, but a perfect time to focus on the overall wellbeing of our children by balancing activities with time to relax.
Spring break offers our students (and faculty and staff) a chance to recharge and rejuvenate. The demands of school, including homework, can take a toll. Breaks allow everyone to step away from routines to relax and return to school with renewed energy and excitement. Spring break also fosters valuable opportunities for family connection in this fast-paced world. Whether you are planning to stay in St. Louis or visiting a much-anticipated destination, spending leisurely days creating memories to last a lifetime will strengthen your family.
No matter your plans, give your children the chance for physical activities and outdoor play, coupled with down time for them to be creative and restorative. Spring break is far more than just a hiatus from school. It’s time for our children to unwind and spend time with family. I encourage you to make the most of this spring break by balancing your child’s time in order to enrich their growth, development, and well-being.
Wishing you all a safe, enjoyable, and rejuvenating spring break!
