We accompanied several hundred students, teachers and staff on the annual Kindness walk on Tuesday morning, thankful for a kindly blue sky and actual Springlike temperatures. We continue our recap of the 25 minute walk in which we asked nearly 3 dozen participants to share the impact that a kindness had had on them. A former Hastings student, Abby, now teaching in the district, explains how she believes that students support kindness.
Horticulture teacher Mr. DeWalt offered his view of what it takes to be kind.
and this student shared a unique show of kindness that came from her father.
Though definitions were varied, everyone I talked with favored paying it forward, making the effort to be kind and valued the efforts of others. Participation in Kindness week and all the comments from our interviews can be found in upcoming newscasts today and also on the KDWA. com website.
