Kindness Week, 11/30/2023

PCES students and staff celebrated Thanksgiving by looking for ways to be kind to others. 

 A core value of the Spring Hill District strategic plan is student success. We develop students to be life-long learners, confident leaders, socially aware citizens, and life managers. 1 of 5 district strategies developed to foster student success is in partnership with students and families. Each student will develop social-emotional skills in order to contribute to society.

SEL supports childrens’ acquisition and application of the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to manage emotions, achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions.

 
Kindness Week Nov. 13-17 was a big success. In 5 days, PCES students performed over 400 acts of kindness in the community. Kindness has been shown to increase self-esteem, empathy, improve mood, and lower the stress hormone cortisol. We are so proud of our Mustangs!
