This was my first experience participating in the Stand
Up-Step Up Kindness Walk/Rally. It was
such a wonderful event. The enthusiasm
of the students, staff, parents, school board members and community supporters
was phenomenal! I really appreciated all
those who planned, organized, volunteered, and otherwise supported this event.
From the student groups who provided song, music poetry
reading and the martial-arts demonstration, to those who facilitated the Bully
prevention workshops, to the incredible messages/signs posted on our “Wall of
Kindness” by our students, it was a day to celebrate and motivate us to be
centered in kindness and caring for each other.
As I have been in this position only three weeks, I look
forward to learning about the various ways schools are creating kind, safe and
caring environment for their students and staff. I am looking forward learning how we can
better support bully prevention efforts.
