Third Graders Pay it Forward With Kindness Rocks

If you happen to see a what looks like an brightly colored rock during your travels on the L-S campus, be sure to come in for a closer look. What you find just might make your day. Third graders have been paying it forward by participating in the Kindness Rocks Project, a growing movement built around spreading cheer by decorating rocks with encouraging messages and then hiding the creations for others to find.

When third grade teacher Mrs. Heyser learned about the Kindness Rocks Project, she immediately knew it was a great fit for her students. Other teachers joined in and five classes got to work painting rocks and writing inspirational words in time for the third grade's May 11 Kindness Day. With the rocks complete, the classes enjoyed a walk around campus looking for the perfect spots to hide their colorful displays of kindness.
