💛 Happy #WorldKindnessDay! Today, our students and staff came together across the district to celebrate kindness by wearing their brightest yellow! 🌞 Each letter in YELLOW represents a key part of what kindness is all about:
✨ Y is for You—kindness starts with each of us. ✨ E is for Engage—connecting with others with an open heart. ✨ L is for Listen—taking time to truly hear one another. ✨ L is for Learn—about one other. ✨ O is for Offer—lending a hand whenever we can. ✨ W is for We—because kindness is something we build together.
By wearing yellow, we’re raising awareness that kindness can brighten our community. 🌼 Be nice. Be kind. Be yellow. 💛 #BeYellow #KindnessDay #ChooseKindness
🍂🍁 Cozy vibes and team pride! 🍁🍂 Our third grade teachers at Pritchett School are staying warm and stylish in their team gear this fall!

District 102 had another successful Safety Night!
Parents attended a Stop the Bleed training and attended sessions on topics such as suicide prevention, building healthy home routines, child CPR, and more. Officer Diaz presented about safety at home and school. Families who attended were entered into a free raffle to win *huge* gift baskets containing family games, books, and craft activities!
As we conclude Principal Appreciation Month, we want to thank our principals for their leadership in our district! We see their work in action in so many ways, supporting students, serving as instructional leaders, and managing our schools every day. We are grateful for their dedication to our students, staff, and families and the important role they play in the success of our school community.
