thinkLaw is 100% #VegasStrong in light of the tragic, senseless actions that impacted the lives of so many people. thinkLaw is Vegas-born and the majority of our school partnerships are in Las Vegas, so although we obviously have our thoughts and prayers in mind for those most impacted, we cannot just have thoughts and prayers. Teachers in Las Vegas and all over the country are showing up today and dealing with the real challenge of helping our young people think through the unthinkable. We do not have the answers for this, but we received some suggestions earlier for helping educators teach students after an attack. And we have a community. Please share any resources you use to connect with students during these tough times. Educators who are on the front lines in giving our students the hope when so much seems hopeless: you are our #MondayMotivation.
