🌟 WEEK THREE: Connection Leads to Compassion 🌟 This week, our students are diving into a powerful lesson on compassion and what it means to connect with others. Teenagers naturally go through a stage of self-focus as they navigate emotional growth. But connection—both online and IRL—helps them become more aware of the needs around them and gives them the confidence to step up and make a difference. We’re exploring how empathy can inspire action through some incredible art prompts! 🎨💬 🖍️ Art Prompts: -Draw someone working toward a cause you care about. -Draw a school full of compassion. By reflecting on these topics, students are learning how their actions can have a positive impact on others. When we connect deeply, we care deeply—and that's where true compassion starts. 💛

At PJHS we appreciate everything our tech department does for us! Happy IT Professionals Day!
