On Monday, June 5, Rose Drive performed its first annual Big Buddy Little Buddy Presentation for friends and families. Students sang \u201cTry a Little Kindness\u201d by Glen Campbell\u201d, \u201cWork Hard and Be Nice\u201d by Michael Franti, \u201cHave you Filled a Bucket Today?\u201d to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and \u201cBe a Good Friend\u201d to the tune of Oh Suzannah reminding those in attendance that kindness is what makes strong communities whether they are small like a classroom or big like a country.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students also performed a Reader\u2019s Theater rendition of the book Have You Filled a Bucket Today? by Carol Mc Cloud teaching us that we should always be careful to fill people\u2019s\u00a0\u201cbuckets\u201d with kindness each day. Fourth-grade read an Acrostic Poem on courage, humility, and kindness while\u00a0 First-graders performed an \u201cI am Enough\u201d Reader\u2019s Theater.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The program was heartfelt and shows the dedication Rose Drive commits to making sure each student is noticed, needed, and nurtured,” Principal Kathleen Escaleras-Nappi shared. “Our Kindness Squad on campus, composed of upper-grade students, also encourages leadership and communication skills. They\u2019ve helped students spread kindness all around campus and to our community by recycling, fundraising for community projects such as His House and more. We believe in a culture that encourages others to repeat good deeds they\u2019ve experienced which therein contributes to a more positive and caring community.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
