Spring Valley Cougars Spreading Kindness Everywhere
“Teachers can open the door, but you must enter it yourself.”
—Chinese proverb
No Bullying: Spring Valley’s monthly life-skill for October is Problem Solving. We are also using this week to recognize Anti-Bullying Awareness and Prevention. The theme for the week is “One Kind Word.” Our theme is reflective of how one kind word can provide our students with a moment of hope! It can change their perspective, change their day, and can change the course of a conversation. One kind word leads to another kind word, which spreads kindness to all those around. Students in all grades will complete a one kind word activity and we will hang these words up throughout the building. We want to encourage our students to help spread positivity and kindness and create a chain reaction throughout our school. To help raise awareness about the importance of being kind, we have planned spirit days for each day of the week.
Monday: BE the best we can be: Wear school colors/Spring Valley Spirit Wear
Tuesday: BE unique: crazy sock day
Wednesday: BE super kind: super hero day
Thursday: BE comfortable with yourself: PJ day
Friday: BE on the same team: favorite sports team jersey/shirt
