The Great Kindness Challenge is one week dedicated to exhibiting kindness and compassion throughout our campus. The challenge runs from Monday, January 24, through Friday, January 28. Last year, over 110 countries participated in the Great Kindness Challenge. We are thrilled to participate in this positive school culture initiative. All classrooms will receive the Great Kindness Challenge Checklist. Please encourage your child to complete as many kind acts as possible!

We will wrap up the week with a Hats off to Kindness (wear your favorite hat) out-of-uniform day on Friday, January 28. Students will wear their house shirt, favorite hat, and out-of-uniform bottoms.

If you would like to participate in the Great Kindness Challenge as a family, use the Family Edition checklist.

The Schenck School is participating in Learning Ally's The Great Reading Games. The contest runs until February 28 and is designed to encourage students to read and learn. We earn points when our students use Learning Ally to read for at least 20 minutes every day. Keep up the good work!

Each student has a Learning Ally account through our School membership and can access their account from home on an iPhone, iPad, Android phone, Android tablet, Chromebook, or computer. To get started, log into LearningAlly.org with your child's username and password and "browse audiobooks" to add titles. The School can win prizes and recognition, so encourage your child to read today! Questions? Contact our media center specialists at library@schenck.org.
