“Random Acts of Kindness Week”
The Student Council supported the Random Acts of Kindness Organization by participating in a week filled with activities that support families, students, and our community. The entire week of February 11th to February 17th, the Student Council hosted a winter drive . We collected hats, gloves, mittens, and scarves to be donated to the People’s Resource Center in Westmont, IL. Other activities during the week included mailing kindness notes through our internal Pleasantdale Post Office, holding the door open for someone, giving compliments, sitting with a new friend at lunch, offering to help with a chore at home, and taking time to play a board game with a family member. As a surprise to the students, the Student Council purchased small stress hearts and asked the teachers to pass them out when they noticed a student being kind.
