A presentation by Broadview, "How do I pay for that? Understanding checking accounts, credit cards and cash" was given to Mr. Olson's class recently. Participants explored the key differences and appropriate uses of debit cards, credit cards, digital payment options and cash. They also learned to identify the components and uses of a personal check and check register, the benefits of a checking account, savings account and certificate of deposit.

Mrs. Cipperly's 5th grade class collaborated with Mrs. McKenna and two of her Russian students, Tommy Kane and Noah Ellsbury, to work on a special holiday project. They brainstormed things they wish they could give to the world, and then created ornaments to represent their "gift". Many students wished for things such as world peace, ending hunger, and protecting endangered habitats.

Join MHANYS School Mental Health Resource and Training Center on Tuesday December 19th from 7:30pm - 8:30pm for: "Family Roundtable Discussion-
Holiday Stress and Support"
The “most wonderful time of the year” doesn’t always feel that wonderful. Holidays are often associated with joy and excitement, but they can be stressful, overwhelming, and challenging for parents and families. The holiday season can quickly bring increased stress and anxiety, and handling these emotions and navigating this period can be challenging for both parents and children. We place high expectations on ourselves to create the perfect holiday memories and experiences for our families. Join us for this panel-style discussion where we will talk about common challenges parents and caregivers face during the holidays, stress youth and teens encounter during the holidays, and share some tips for maintaining good mental health through the holiday season.
