The importance of being kind can never be underestimated. Students from LGMS discuss the complexities and simplicities of being kind and put up an intricate mural to finalize their project.
It seems as if so many school sites who once embraced this have now forgotten it ….all banks of fluorescent lights on , cluttered classrooms, loud, chaotic, congested hallways, disruptive assemblies …I have seen so many places where considering the environment is no longer.
Happy #TakeMeOutsideDay
