The Great Kindness Challenge @ Upper Campus

The Great Kindness Challenge is going on this week at LCEU!

This event is a proactive and positive bullying prevention initiative that improves school climate and increases student engagement. The Great Kindness Challenge is one week devoted to performing as many acts of kindness as possible on campus. 

Last year, over 15 million students in 25,000+ schools in all 50 states and 115 countries united to create a culture of kindness. Using the provided checklist of 50 kind acts, students accept the challenge and show the world that KINDNESS MATTERS! 

This year, LCEU's school goal is to perform over 4,000 acts of kindness. We will have a daily kindness focus with students adding "sprinkles" of kindness throughout the day. Please encourage your child to participate as much as possible at school!  

If you would like to participate as a family, visit 

https://thegreatkindnesschallenge.com/familyedition/ for a free family edition checklist or download the Great Kindness Challenge app on your mobile phone.
