Counselor Connection: National Kindness Day

(11/12): Pontotoc Middle School celebrated World Kindness Day on Thursday, November 13. World Kindness Day is an international holiday that was formed in 1998 to promote kindness throughout the world and is observed annually on November 13 as part of the World Kindness Movement. It is observed in many countries including the United States, Canada, and Japan. World Kindness Day presents us with the opportunity to pay it forward and display numerous Random Acts of Kindness.
**As part of our Kindness campaign we are kicking off a “Can Food Drive” and these items will be donated to our local food pantry.
**Students and teachers can also wear bright colors on this day to remember the slogan “Shine bright with Kindness”.
**Students and staff will also be challenged to perform 5 acts of kindness throughout the day.
