St. Mark’s Campus parents will continue discussing “Good Inside” by Dr. Becky Kennedy. In this meeting, they will discuss chapter 26 – end of the book (pages 259 – 298).
Topics:
- Perfectionism
- Separation Anxiety
- Sleep
- Kids Who Don’t Like Talking About Feelings (Deeply Feeling Kids)
As always, participants do not need to have read the book to attend.
It takes a dedicated community of volunteers to bring A Vision for Art—St. Mark’s Campus’ annual art exhibition fundraiser—to life. This four-day event attracts hundreds of art enthusiasts, from casual buyers to serious collectors, making it a highlight of the year.
Whether you’re greeting guests as a gallery host or serving mimosas, volunteering is a lot of fun!
Pre-K 3—Grade 5 students receive a book for their birthday that is added to the Steve Williams Library Collection. Please be on the lookout for an email from Mrs. Trumpler regarding book selection. After a special bookplate is placed in the book, it will be blessed at the Birthday Chapel. Your child will be the first person to check out the book, and we ask them to return it after reading it for a few weeks so other children can enjoy it! Please join us at their special birthday Chapel.

Parents are welcome to attend these afternoon gatherings, as they are all Chapels and gatherings.
