Our 7th grader participated in a great experience today, supporting our Positivity Project character strength: Appreciating Beauty and Excellence in honor of Earth Day 2024! From the Saratoga County Facebook page:
"Today, 7th graders from Corinth Central School District joined forces with Saratoga County to stock fish at the Corinth Reservoir Property. Joined by Supervisor Butler of the Town of Corinth, New York, the students eagerly stocked the reservoir with Brook Trout. This experience not only provided a valuable learning experience but also contributed to conservation efforts. The Saratoga County Fish Stocking program combines educational opportunities for students on the importance of preserving fish populations in addition to providing recreational opportunities for anglers. Thank you to the Saratoga County Board of Supervisors for supporting this program and to the students for participating."
Great job, 7th grade!!! #CorinthisCommunity (More photos on Facebook)

Thank you for all that you do to transport our students to and from school, field trips and athletic contests safely! We appreciate you!
Dear CCSD Families:
This week our school community will be focusing on the character strength of Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence (JUST IN TIME FOR EARTH DAY!). Appreciation of beauty and excellence means you notice and value the world’s beauty and people’s skills. You don’t take things for granted.
Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence is the ability to identify and enjoy that which is admirable in the world. There are three types of goodness in which positive psychology focuses: physical beauty (e.g. a sunset, a song, or building); an exceptional skill or talent; and moral goodness (e.g. a character strength). Appreciation of beauty can generate awe; appreciation of a skill can generate admiration; and appreciation of moral goodness can generate moral elevation. All of these feelings (awe, admiration, and moral elevation) help us forget ourselves and find increased joy and meaning in the world.
Appreciating excellence and beauty helps an individual experience positive emotions and connect to the world around them. It’s an outward facing strength, meaning the individual is focused on the world outside their head. And, not only is the individual outwardly focused, but often deeply absorbed in a sense of awe or admiration, freeing them to forget anxieties and troubles. And it is associated with other strengths, such as gratitude, curiosity, love of learning, and purpose.
To practice and encourage the character strength of Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families (password: P2) where together you can watch a video, read a quote and talk about the answers to three questions.
Have a wonderful week and HAPPY EARTH DAY!
