National Random Acts of Kindness Day is celebrated each year on February 17 and serves as a reminder of the power of simple, thoughtful gestures. Whether it’s offering a compliment, helping a neighbor, writing a thank-you note, or including someone at lunch, small acts of kindness can make a big difference in building a positive and supportive school community. Taking time to spread kindness not only brightens someone else’s day—it boosts our own well-being and strengthens connections. Let’s work together to make kindness contagious, not just today, but all year long.

Kindness Ideas for Students:

Invite someone new to sit with you at lunch
Write a positive note to a classmate or teacher
Help a peer with homework or studying
Hold the door open or offer a friendly greeting
Clean up a shared space without being asked

Kindness Ideas for Adults:

Send a quick appreciation email or note to a colleague
Volunteer to help with a school event or activity
Thank a staff member who makes a difference
Donate supplies to a classroom or program
Offer words of encouragement to a student having a tough day

Even the smallest act can create a ripple effect of positivity—let’s all take part in making our school community a little brighter!

Kindness is contagious… but we want to know how YOU spread it!
