Be Kind, Helpful, Inclusive
"No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." -Aesop
Small, random, big, planned...
Every act of kindness makes a difference. Our goal at Byrd Middle School is to focus on the difference an act of kindness can make in the lives of our friends, co-workers, and community.
F.A.Q. for Students
You can get a kindness card from any teacher or administrator in the building. Kindness cards are also located in both cafeterias.
Which color card do I fill out?
Yellow for 6th grade, white for 7th grade, and blue for 8th grade. Remember, get the color card that represents the person that performed the kind act. (Not the person filling out the card)
Why fill out a card at all? Shouldn't we all want to be kind without recognition?
Yes, we should! Our hope is that everyone will make kindness a part of their everyday life. There are many reasons that we want to have the cards filled out:
- We'd like to share what is happening around Byrd with other students.
- We would like to share these kind acts with the entire school community and the only way to know about them is through the cards.
- We want to start a chain reaction. That begins by being aware of the kind acts that are going on around Byrd. When you hear about something kind that happened, or when someone is kind to you- it evokes a feeling in you that makes you want to pass the kindness along. Filling out the cards is another way to spread that feeling.
