GiveThx

GiveThx is a digital program and research-validated curriculum that strengthens student well-being and social-emotional skills through gratitude. Students send digital Thx notes to each other and to school staff. They recognize positive behaviors, learn about their strengths, and share appreciations - anywhere, anytime.
