Listen "Advocacy, Gratitude and Remembrance - S6E5"
Episode Synopsis
As we prepare to enter the holiday season, our focus in this week’s episode is on three main topics: Remembrance, Gratitude, and Advocacy.
Remembrance
At the beginning of the episode, we take time to remember Emmaus High School junior Edwin Cortes, who was killed in a car accident on October 31. Edwin was a student in my 9th grade science class in 2021 and I shared some thoughts about him and how quickly life can change for anyone at any age.
Gratitude
We welcome Ms. Rosemary Lamparella back to the podcast to lead a discussion about the differences between gratitude and thankfulness. As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday and the annual Attitude of Gratitude podcast, Ms. Lamparella shares the benefits we can attain from incorporating more gratitude practices into our lives. She even speaks to students who may feel that they may have very little to appreciate in their lives and ways to reframe that mindset.
Advocacy
We conclude the episode in a conversation with freshman Kris Emmer, who spoke about her adjustment from cyber school in 8th grade to a traditional high school environment here at EHS. She has participated in the principal’s advisory council during the first two months of school and wanted to share her thoughts about why advocacy is important and things that can be done to improve the school community.
