6 个月Looking at our current society, I envision each individual as a seed. If we solely concentrate on providing sunlight and air, the seed won't have all the essentials to eventually thrive and flourish in this world. It's crucial that it receives all necessary elements to reach its full potential. Similarly, with our students, as mentioned in the article, focusing solely on academic excellence will hinder their ability to thrive in the world. Intentionally teaching practical skills like budgeting, fostering empathy, and cultivating more abstract skills such as creativity are equally essential. Way to go Miaplaza for focusing on the WHOLE child.
