This week, NMSA focuses on building each other up with positive affirmations. Here's the idea: students decide to write short, encouraging messages for classmates, teachers, and anyone at school! You can leave it on a sticky note, send a quick message, or offer a heartfelt compliment. Together, we can create a more positive and supportive environment for everyone to learn and grow! #positive #NMSA
