World Kindness Day is tomorrow! As we embrace the motto “Warriors are Kind,” we encourage you to consider the small acts of kindness you can share—whether it’s writing a thoughtful note, offering encouragement, or reaching out to someone who needs support.
We also encourage you to wear a Be Kind t-shirt or a cardigan to school tomorrow to help celebrate World Kindness Day.
As a reminder, kindness clips will be handed out to some of our students during the school day. Feel free to keep the kindness clip or pass the positivity along.
BC2M will also have a photo backdrop setup in the cafeteria for World Kindness Day. Stop over to the table during your lunch hour to help promote the message of positivity, compassion, and consideration.
Thank you to our students involved in Bring Change 2 Mind who have been preparing activities for World Kindness Day at LWW! If you are interested in joining Bring Change 2 Mind, contact Mrs. Hack in PPS. #WarriorsAreKind #BeKind #GetInvolved #LeadTheWay

Warriors - Did you know World Kindness Day is quickly approaching?!
🧡 Bring Change 2 Mind will be promoting kindness by sharing clips with positive messages throughout the school day this Wednesday. If you receive a clip, feel free to keep it or pass the positivity on to another Warrior.
🖤 We are also inviting all Warriors to wear their LWW Be Kind shirts to school on Wednesday. Don’t have a Be Kind to shirt on Wednesday? Another option is to consider wearing a cardigan similar to Mr. Rogers to promote the message of positivity, compassion, and consideration.
📸 Bring Change 2 Mind will also have a photo backdrop setup in the cafeteria for all the lunch hours on World Kindness Day.
We hope you join BC2M in at least one of our activities for World Kindness Day! Take some time to show kindness, today, and always. #WarriorsAreKind #BeKind #GetInvolved #LeadTheWay
