How To Get The Best Education Possible: Tip #11

Today is September 21, and it is the day we celebrate "International Day of Peace".  At the Academy for Academics and Arts, we had an assembly with our State Congress Woman speaking to the children about her experiences in the 60s.  We also had famous quotes spoken and songs of peace sung.  Our art teacher had every child in the school make a pinwheel and they were placed outside in the shape of a peace sign. With every child, teacher, staff, and administrators present, more words of inspiration and peace were spoken.  We were all challenged to think of ways to bring more peace to our school, communities, state, country, and the world.  We were reminded that this was just a small picture of what was happening around the world, with children making pinwheels of peace. 

Tip #11: Make sure your child is aware this day, The International Day of Peace,  and envisions it as an  inspiration to some day have "World Peace". 

Your child should understand that having a  peaceful spirit, love in their hearts, tolerance for differences, and having true forgiveness could not only change your family, community, state, and country, but the entire world.
