About:

Throughout the Lindenhurst Union Free School District, students and staff took part in Kindness Week. They challenged themselves to participate in various acts of kindness such as saying hello to three people, paying someone a complement or writing a thank-you note to someone in the school.

At Alleghany Avenue Elementary School, where the theme was Spreading Kindness Alleghany and Beyond, students took part in classroom lessons from the Beyond Our Neighbors curriculum supporting empathy and compassion for others. Lessons revolved around virtual read-a-louds including one from school social worker, Florri Krefsky, who read “The Forgiveness Garden” by Lauren Thompson. 

Students put together a large banner to thank the school’s custodians for their hard work in keeping the school clean and safe. Additionally, students contributed messages of appreciation for their teachers on purple hearts that were posted on the school’s “Appreciation Station” bulletin board.

At Lindenhurst High School, Principal Dr. Candice Brodie and the school’s assistant principals showed their appreciation for the staff and demonstrated kindness by serving them hot chocolate throughout the day on Feb. 12.
