World Kindness Day 2024 was on Wednesday, November 13th. It was a huge success! Students were asked to wear the Kindness color of blue to honor the day. Almost every student and staff member wore blue! Students played Kindness Bingo, recorded their Kindness Acts, made Kindness Bookmarks that we hid in books in our elementary library, colored kindness posters. and explored why Kindness Day is celebrated. This was a great whole building day to just share joy, love, and kindness all around us!
