Taking care of our students
This week in advisement our lesson to the students is focused on Random Acts of Kindness! We think it’s important to teach our students the impact of extending a helping hand or any type of kind gesture. As we all know, these small acts can really make a difference to another person. We are all human, and we all could use a spontaneous reminder that we are appreciated and loved.
A random act of kindness is defined as: An act performed by a person or people for the sole purpose of assisting or cheering up an individual. Or to simply make them smile.
In a world of heightened negativity all around us, we are subjected to a lot of unsupportive energy. At RHHS, we want to promote a supportive environment and it starts with all of us encouraging one another.
Our lesson highlights examples of “Making Kindness a Daily Practice” and it includes things like:
-Holding the door for someone
-Smiling at people as you walk by
-Helping an elderly person with their groceries
-Texting a family member or friend to “Have a good day! Thinking of you!”
-Posting something positive on social media to spread that positivity to others
Our advisors will ask the students questions such as: “Has there ever been a time when all you needed was someone to be kind to you?” And “Think about a time when you or someone close to you was experiencing a difficult challenge. How could a small act of kindness have helped them through that challenge?” We want our kids to really reflect on how something small to them, could make a very big difference to someone else. And as always, we remind students that if they are ever feeling down and cannot cope by themselves-the counseling office is always open.
