Heart Warming story:
The Superintendents office received a phone call today. The fellow told me that he was volunteering at a eatery in Ft Pierre last night. He felt compelled to call this morning and compliment the group of SRs he was able to visit with while they ate! Compliments like “they were so polite”, “your kids were so kind to all the volunteers” & “ you should be so proud” were a few of the accolades. I thanked him and told him we needed to share this positivity b/c to often it’s the other way that gets spotlighted.
So I hung up and proceeded to track down everyone that was there, I put them in a classroom without knowledge of what was to happen…after a few tense moments these fine men and women realized they weren’t in trouble and were able to beam with pride! Pride that was well deserved b/c they were recognized as the good kids they truly are.
So, I share this with you all and if you see one of them, pat them on the back b/c they made you, the parents, the community & this school look really good last night!!
