To start the 2013-14 school year, our students and staff accepted Shawn Achor's challenge of being positive in the present. Shawn Achor is an American educator, author, and speaker known for his advocacy of positive psychology.  This challenge included:

1. Writing three new things each day for which you are grateful,
2. Write down one positive experience from the past 24 hours.
3. Exercise
4. Mediate
5. Provide one random act of kindness each day and write down what you did.

We have been pleased with our students and staffs' commitment to Shawn's challenge and have witnessed several acts of kindness at MJHS. In order to recognize these kind acts, staff members have been giving students a "random act of kindness ticket" to enter a drawing to spin our wheel, which offers a variety of prizes. Great job MJHS!
