7-12 students create Stronger Together: Unity board

Students in grades 7-12 participated in creating a bulletin board, Stronger Together- Unity- as part of October's National Bullying Prevention Month. 

The Candy, Cookies, and Kindness Go Hand in Hand activity was conducted during the students lunch period. Students were asked to select and write on a hand a positive quote, words of encouragement, how they can be a good friend, or how they could change/impact school culture. Once completed they were able to select a treat of their choice. 

 “The experience was very heartwarming,” said Principal Jill Farrand.
