๐ It's Random Acts of Kindness Day !!!๐
๐ A small act of kindness can make a big difference! Whether it's helping a friend, writing a positive note, or simply sharing a smile, your small act can make a big difference.๐ฅฐ๐
โจ Join us in making kindness the norm! โจ Let's spread kindness like confetti today and every day. How will you show kindness today???
#Allin4OurKids #MakeKindnessTheNorm #RandomActsOfKindnessDay #KindnessMatters #SpreadLove


๐ฅฐ๐ Remember, kindness is about making and keeping friends. One study found that students who performed Random Acts of Kindness felt more accepted by their classmates and had more friends than the students who did not perform Random Acts of Kindness. ๐
When you are kind to others, more people want to be around you. Being kind to others is one of the best ways to make and keep friends! How will you show kindness today?๐

Do you have a friend that you can always depend on? Has one of your teachers taken the extra time to help you learn something new? Try to find the time today to say thank you to the people who mean the most to you. Remember: a simple โthank youโ can go a long way! ๐

๐ท We know that regular school attendance is essential for student success, which is why we continue to emphasize the importance of showing up every day through our Be Here Alamo initiative. However, as flu season is upon us, we also want to make it clear that student health and well-being come firstโwe do not want students to attend school if they are sick. ๐๐ฉบ
๐ง This afternoon, an important email was sent to all parents/guardians with more details about this topic. Please check your inbox for this important information.
For more on our flu protocols, you can view the PDFs on our website: https://www.alamogordoschools.org/documents/departments/health-services/flu-season/757153+
Together, we can keep our school community healthy this flu season! ๐ช
