Character Every Day



I believe great character is in the little day-to-day actions that take place. Here's a great example. Doris Buck is a wonderful cleaner at our school, We are lucky to have her. Today I asked her to sweep the sand off the asphalt off our outside basketball courts and back into the playground. She was doing this at lunch.

When I was on yard duty, I looked over and saw many of our JK - Gr. 1 students helping her sweep, shovel and transport the sand with their dump trucks. She had to go into the school to get more brooms and shovels. I was so proud of our little ones, and of Doris for letting them help.
