Harlan Elementary School is focusing on Kindness, Equality, and Mindfulness throughout the month of February. We want to encourage and remind students how important it is to treat others and themselves with kindness and respect.
HES will celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Week, February 12th - 16th. Below is a week of fun dress-up days and daily kindness challenges for our students. Students will participate in various activities throughout the week to show kindness towards our friends and staff.
We are sending home a calendar and a checklist of different Random Acts of Kindness that you can complete with your child for fun! If you’d like, you may also write a kind note of gratitude or encouragement to a staff member. We will distribute them in their mailboxes on Thursday, February 15th.
Thank you for helping us teach our students the power of kindness!!
