Yesterday Kelley Perotti from Top Youth Speakers came to Odin to speak with our K-6th grade students about kindness. Kelley told her testimony on how she was a kid that moved a lot and went to different schools. One school changed her life because students were kind and accepted her. Now, our students have been challenged by Kelley to complete a kindness journal and reach 5,000 acts of kindness in 15 days.
Kindness Challenge has started today!!
