I hope you all had a nice, relaxing, Thanksgiving! It's hard to believe there are less than three full weeks until the next holiday break!
Kindness
This week we are focusing on the character strength of kindness. Kind people think about the needs and feelings of other people, and then act to help those people. Kind people are selfless. For more about kindness, click here. Speaking of kindness, thank you to everyone that donated to our Thankfulness project! Our student council, in conjunction with the PTA, was able to provide eleven Thanksgiving dinners for East Hill families which were very much appreciated! Thank you also to everyone that was able to take a tag off of the tree in our lobby and purchase a gift for one of our families. We are so fortunate to live in such a generous community!
Yesterday Officer Brand visited East Hill for our second CODE (Community-Oriented Drug Education) assembly. She spoke on different topics at each grade level. You should have received a letter detailing the different topics. If you could follow-up on these discussions at home it would be very beneficial for our students!
