My Project

My project aims to create a more compassionate and inclusive school environment by empowering students to embrace and practice kindness daily. We are a Title 1 school, and the majority of my students receive free and reduced lunch.

We will introduce a kindness-focused curriculum that integrates lessons on empathy, conflict resolution, and tolerance into our small group activities, creating a lasting foundation for kindness.

By funding this project, you will help us instill the values of kindness and empathy in our students, equipping them with the essential life skills needed to create a more harmonious and accepting school community.
