In 2014, as the incoming district-level PTA president, I approached the district about doing more than just anti-bullying in our schools. Let’s focus on what we WANT. We want students to be kind, to reach out to one another, to look for someone who is lonely and be their friend.
That year, Provo Kindness began, and now all 18 of our schools have student-led kindness clubs. Students create a culture of kindness and compassion, and they involve the entire student body in doing so. I continue to serve on the district Kindness Committee. We host an annual Kindness Retreat, where student kindness leaders from every school come together to get ideas to take back to their schools. |
A few years ago, I felt the pull to take Provo Kindness to the entire city. All of us can benefit from thinking more about the way we view and treat each other! To learn more about Provo Kindness, visit our website and follow @provokindness on Instagram and Facebook.
