It’s Kindness Week! 🫶🏼 We are celebrating by showing extra kindness and love at GBP this week. #VAKindnessWeek
Mr. Mason shared our Thought of the Week by Aesop this morning to get us thinking about spreading kindness, in big or small ways, throughout each day.
“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.”
Reminders for tomorrow and Wednesday. We have a few fun days ahead! 🩷

🎉 Join us in saluting the service of over 800 school board members in Virginia for School Board Appreciation Month! The 2024 theme — The Heart of Education: Our School Board — acknowledges that the school board is at the heart of the education system, guiding it with kindness and care. The month-long observance is an opportunity to build a stronger understanding of the crucial role school boards assume in a constitutional republic. School boards voluntarily tackle the enormous job of governing public school divisions, while preserving the core of our democratic values. #CPSCelebrates
This morning we kicked off second semester with our new virtual morning announcements! A few of Mrs. Scott’s friends were the first to be featured as our pledge helpers. 🐾💚💛
