Bishop Garriga Middle Preparatory School has implemented the theme, “Random Acts of Kindness,” from Jan.-May 2023.
It was presented to the principal, Sister Marilyn Springs and the teachers loved the idea and embraced the theme. The purpose is for the students/ staff to make an intentional choice of being kind and aware of others.
Sixth and seventh graders voted on service and how they would implement it. They didn't let any other classes know what they were doing. They wanted it to be a surprise. After completing the project, the students journaled, and the feedback was amazing. Both the giver and receiver felt joy.
“We hope this theme will be contagious and continue at home and in the community,” Mrs. LeGrange said.
