Last week, Mrs. Redd's first grade class joined the 20 million students worldwide that participated in this year's Great Kindness Challenge! Students were encouraged to complete kind acts and keep track of their kindness on a checklist. These activities included decorating bookmarks to be handed out in the library, greeting friends in the morning, thanking school staff members and administrators, posting "kindness matters" signs, and even eating a healthy snack to nourish their own bodies. Students had a great time completing these challenges and are officially Kind Kid Certified! #WildcatExcellence Learn more about the Great Kindness Challenge here: https://thegreatkindnesschallenge.com/
