Mindfulness Takes Flight at West

Author Lindsey Frank and Zion Township Supervisor Cheri Neal visited West’s fourth-graders for a Mindfulness Takes Flight experience, where students celebrated growth, kindness, and new beginnings. Mrs. Frank shared her book Big Change, Better You, Beautiful World before Ms. Neal led a butterfly release, allowing students to send their personal wishes into the world like the butterflies taking flight.
