So many Kindergarteners went over to feel the rug and sit on it, they were so excited. They noticed how vibrant the colors were and had a hard time picking a color to sit on!\r\n\r\nOur students and I more than appreciate your kind generosity. It truly takes someone special to donate a classroom rug to students you may have not met before. It is a wonderful thing to show students that there are amazing people in our world that do acts of kindness to help others and make the world a better place for all.
