Many leaves are still on the tree at Hartford Union High School. The Sources of Strength student leaders started their annual Thankfulness Campaign in November. Students and staff are invited to write what they are grateful for on colorful leaves. 

It has created many smiling faces, and not just because there is no raking involved.

Over the past few weeks, those leaves have come together in the most inspiring way. Their student leaders spent time painting a tree across the library windows and carefully adding every gratitude leaf shared by Hartford Union High School. The result is a vibrant display of appreciation, connection, and positivity that truly brightens their school.
