Create and display positive messages in visible areas

What’s involved

Display positive messages, notes of care, and gratitude to bring a smile to everyone’s faces.
Create signs with messages of hope, jokes, laughter, or paintings to hang on the school fence for anyone who drives by to enjoy. Consider laminating the signs to protect them from different weather elements.
Schools may consider purchasing cardboard letter cutouts (e.g., messages of “We miss you!”), to display for school community members passing by.
Challenge students to make signs or art displays and hang them in their windows at home, ask parents take pictures of the signs and post them on the school’s social media page to celebrate with the school community.
School staff may take the time to tour the artwork completed by students via drive-by, bike ride, or community walks.
