Students #ChooseKind at SMG

SMG organized screenings of the film Wonder for over 30 schools and more than 13,000 students across the country. At the SMG The Colony screenings, over 2500 Prosper Independent School District students were able to interact with social-emotional educational facilitators from Big Thought to create an impactful learning experience focused on the themes of the movie, like acceptance, belonging, empathy, and kindness.

SMG Northwest Highway also hosted Big Thought's Thriving Minds After School (TMAS) students and SMG Lincoln Square welcomed 800 young students from the Uplift program.
