We are so proud to say that our 3rd grade Bluejays have worked extremely hard and can OFFICIALLY call themselves published authors of the book, “Kindness Sticks Anywhere in the World.” The book was inspired by two things: sticky notes and our favorite class quote, “In a world where you can be anything, be kind.” These two things are very special and unique to this group of students! They have touched many hearts and minds with their kind words and actions!
In celebration of the students awesome efforts, they participated in a “Meet the Author” book signing event and were invited to attend our District’s Board meeting to share their story! Way to go 3rd graders and thank you for inspiring us to continue sticking kindness everywhere in the world! 🤩 #ProudAuthors
