Word of the Week: “Confidence”
Parents! As we are entering week three of our Keys 2 Life Performing Arts Summer Camp, we want to share with you some of the things we have been teaching our campers! ๐โฃ

Last week the word of the week was confidence:โฃ

We discussed how confidence means feeling sure of yourself and your abilities – not in an arrogant way, but in a realistic, secure way. Confidence isn’t about feeling superior to others. It’s a quiet inner knowledge that you’re capable. Confident people feel secure rather than insecure.โฃ

The campers were very engaged and gave great insight. Parents, what additional insight can you share regarding confidence?๐
