The world could always use more kindness. Springfield High School participated in World Kindness Day today as a reminder that simple gestures can have a widespread impact.
This commitment to kindness took shape in various forms. Several classrooms completed kindness-themed activities. For example, In Ms. Erica Spirk’s Spanish class, students wrote compliments to their classmates, completed a self-compliment paper chain and added positive messaging sticky notes to lockers in the hallway.
Throughout the building, staff members distributed kindness tickets to students who were ‘caught’ being kind. Student tickets will be randomly drawn at the end of the day for prizes donated by local businesses, including gift baskets from Raising Canes, Studio B Salon & Spa, Northridge Bowling Lanes & Grandpa Joe’s Candy Shop.
Staff members were also encouraged to wear their favorite shirt that represents kindness.
‘World Kindness Day’ at SHS was led this year by the school’s counseling team. Make sure to spread your kindness to others today!
