Signs of Stress week

Happy Black and Gold Friday, Deac families! It was a beautiful morning on campus – a lovely pink sunrise.

There is a series of events next week geared to help your Deacs with stress; details are on the Signs of Stress website. But what caught my eye is that THERE WILL BE DOGS. Check out the schedule below. And on the subject of wellbeing, since it’s Friday, give your kids a call. You know why.

Hope your Deacs take advantage of some of the great offerings below. Did I mention dogs??? 🙂
