Dear Clifton Parents,

Over the past few weeks, we've explored the emotions we most wish for our children – hope and happiness. As we navigate these times together, let's reflect on the words of Dr. Chris Peterson, who summed up positive psychology in three simple words: "Other people matter." Building and nurturing relationships is key to finding happiness.

While we may have mixed emotions about the future, filled with both optimism and uncertainty, our children are watching and learning from us. They observe how we handle situations and interact with others. Our responses now will shape their approach to similar challenges in the future.

Let's seize this opportunity to demonstrate the values and character that will help them thrive. By focusing on making other people matter, we can guide our children towards a hopeful and happy future.

Brian’s talent for bringing out the best in people, along with his humble and dedicated approach to life, is truly inspiring. We can all aspire to emulate these qualities.

Thank you, Brian and Lisa, for the outstanding work you do at Clifton!
