Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My school is full of wonderful students who work hard, daily, and strive for academic excellence. I am wanting to start a "Kindness Cart" at my school to promote happiness and spread kindness to others each day. Being rewarded (and acknowledged) will increase productivity, allowing students to be more successful throughout the school day.

Being rewarded for your efforts boosts esteem, confidence, and morale.

The "kindness cart" will improve the overall morale, which then improves student success.

We plan to decorate the cart and allow students to walk around during their lunchtime and spread the "kindness" with juice and snacks for everyone to help brighten up their days. I believe this would help spread love and positivity to a group of students who truly deserve it.
