Willowwind students' receipt of the Charlotte Bacon Acts of Kindness (CBAof K) award is a wonderful acknowledgment of the joy our children are bringing to our community. This recognition was inspiring to a community business, Hills Bank and Trust. They feel that our students' actions align with a corporate initiative they have to identify and celebrate people in our community who go above and beyond to serve others. As part of their own pay it forward campaign, representatives from Hills Bank will be visiting Willowwind on Monday, February 2 to provide a pizza party lunch for all PK - 6 students to recognize the CBAoK Award and to say, "Thank you!" for making Iowa City a wonderful place to live.
Please plan to send a drink and any fruit or vegetable sides that you would like your child to have for lunch that day. Your K-6 child will also need to bring his or her regular morning and afternoon snack items. Of course, should prefer that your child not participate, please send him or her with the lunch of your choice.
In addition, your child and their Kindergarten classmates have presented their desire to spread the love at home, school, and in the community. We have set a goal to achieve 300 RAKs (Random Acts of Kindness) in 30 DAYS! Help your child spread the love. With each act of kindness they complete have them fill out a flashcard (paper from home or flashcards are available at school), snap a picture of the act and share them with Stacia or me. We want to create a school wide displays that highlights all of our acts. With each act turned in, we also hope to share our kind acts on Facebook. Please help your child with their excitement to make a difference with small acts. Let us know if you have any questions.
