PHILLY LOVE WALL OF GOOD DEEDS AND KINDNESS
In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr., from MLK, Jr. Day through Valentine's Day (January 18 - February 14), Beaumont students will have an opportunity to show just how much love they can spread through good deeds, acts of kindness and service. And the best part is, it doesn't require anything but being their kind, loving and generous selves! The school lobby will boast the "Philly Love Wall", where students can put up hearts with their names and good deeds over the course of the month. Teachers will have hearts available for students to write on. So when you "catch them in the act" of kindness at home, please remind them they can add a heart to the Philly Love Wall when they get to school. If you have a chance, pop in and be inspired by just how kind and generous our kids are. As parents, we can show some Philly Love by sending in any extra unopened school supplies you may have in the house, which will be donated to Philadelphia schools. Thank you for your donations.
