Staff and students came to school and work on World Kindness Day as they always do, ready to share kindness and live out our school district's motto, Excellence By Example!
If you came to any of our buildings yesterday, we could be found wearing shirts that shared kind messages in support of the national effort. Across the hallways of every MTSD school were shirts that shared the message "you are enough." reminding all members of our school community that they are valued and, as the back of the shirts state, "the world is a better place with you in it!"
The students and staff at Regional Day School and Ridgeway Elementary School put the "I" in Kind today in both the literal word and their actions!
At MTHS food service members continued to serve meals with kindness and a smile, proudly wearing their "you are enough." shirts in support! And during period 2 each MTHS student was given an index card that they wrote their name on the front. They then passed the card around the room so that a peer could write a kind comment on their index card. The students and staff enjoyed the activity!
World Kindness Day is set aside to recognize the importance of being kind to each other, ourselves, and the world! The Manchester Township School District celebrates and encourages kindness every day. "No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted." Aesop
