A note from the principal...

Dear Needmore Families,


This week is the Great Kindness Challenge week and we are focusing on spreading kindness all week. The Great Kindness Challenge is a global campaign that promotes kindness, social-emotional health, and bullying prevention. Along with other activities in the classroom, we are collecting donations for Becky's Place and the Men's Warming Shelter. The class that brings in the most items at the end of the week will receive an ice cream party from PTO. Please see the flyer below for ideas of items to donate. Mrs. Harris made an interactive kindness board for students to add to when they complete acts of kindness. You can encourage these acts of kindness at home as well.


Have a great week!
