Today, both of our buildings are getting the
incredible opportunity to hear from Mike Donahue with Value Up — and the message hit home. ❤️
At Mary Lynch Elementary, students were challenged to think deeply about their words, actions, and worth. Mike’s message was powerful and emotional, leaving a lasting impact on everyone in the room.
Some key takeaways:
✨ Words can do damage — but they can also heal.
✨ When you know your value, words don’t have to hurt.
✨ Don’t hide behind a smile — if you need help, get help.
✨ We all have rough days, but we must be accountable for them.
✨ You don’t have to compete for value — you already have it.
✨ You attract what you respect — if you don’t value yourself, others won’t either.
Tonight at 6:00 PM, parents and community members are invited to hear this same message — with even more insight into how we can help our kids navigate the challenges of adolescence.
This evening’s session promises to be the most powerful of the day — a chance for our community to come together, reflect, and truly “Value Up.” 💪💛
