RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS--
Last week, our Guidance Counselor, Mrs. Addington, spoke with students about kindness, and how they can show kindness to others. Students made hearts and wrote a compliment on it. Mrs. Jellison and student volunteers assisted hanging these hearts on everyone's locker as a surprise.
Students also made cards that were taken to residents of local nursing homes and assisted living facilities. The residents were so happy to receive the cards.
