The month of November is National Gratitude Month and that means that it is encouraged all throughout November to show appreciation and thanks for the positive things in your life. 

At Cleveland High School students and staff members were asked what were some things that they were grateful for in their lives. Staff member Regina Ray said, “I would have to say that I am most grateful for the health of myself and my family members.” 

Being grateful and thankful are very strong themes within the month of November not only because of it being National Gratitude Month, but also because it is Thanksgiving. This holiday is all about families getting together and celebrating being thankful. Students at Cleveland High School were asked what their favorite part about thanksgiving was. A senior, Kayla Quarles said that her favorite part was “going out of town to visit the family members that I don’t always see and spending time with them.” 

November is just a reminder to everyone to be grateful for everything you have. So this National Gratitude Month, take some extra time to remember to be grateful for the little things.
