Friday, February 17th was National Random Act of Kindness Day. At the middle school, Student Council - Difference Makers decided to give each student a small burst of kindness as they walked into the building, posted positive affirmations on each locker and gave small tokens of appreciation to each faculty and staff member. Additionally, it was a House Assembly and Activity Day at the middle school. After the monthly assembly, students broke up into their House mentor groups to have discussions about kindness, create hearts with positive character traits about fellow House members and took on the challenge of creating the tallest tower out of hearts! What a great National Random Act of Kindness Day and a wonderful way to start Mid-Winter Break!

They represented the district to the nth degree. They were welcome hosts to the 13 different schools participating in the event. Nothing seemed to phase them that day. It was almost as if they had thought of every type of disruption possible and already figured out possible responses on how to handle them. They had smiles on their faces from the start to the end. They were rock stars."; photos of Eric Bugbee, Katie Lindsey and Hannah Raymond

In a lab experiment, Mount Markham fifth-grade students weighed substances before and after various processes (melting, dissolving or a chemical reaction) had occurred. Students observed and concluded that mass is conserved in these processes, so the mass did not change.

Congratulations to Maura Bednarczyk for receiving a Staff Shout-Out! Your kindness and compassion for others does not go unnoticed.

Staff Shout-Out: Maura Bednarczyk, quote reads: "A student of mine was confused after the long weekend as to which day it was - A or B. He went to the wrong class and didn't realize his mistake until a few minutes after class started. He was very embarrassed and upset. While he was outside my room taking some time to calm down while I taught, Maura stopped by and took time out of her day to help the student feel better. After she made him laugh, he was able to calm down enough to return to class. She didn't need to stop by on her way through, but took the time to do what was best for a student in need. I so appreciated the gesture, as did he! " Photo of Maura Bednarczyk
