Your child will be receiving a white bag in their green folder that will need to be decorated and brought back to school so they can collect their kindness cards.
Our classes will be snacking on Friendship Trail Mix during our celebration! If you would like to donate items for our celebration, we would really appreciate it!

PTA Notes and Volunteering:
This year we are including the notecard that is attached to the flower ahead of time for the students who want to write a personal message. Please print the note and have your student bring it to school and we include it with the flower. Feel free to color the note too! If your student does not wish to write a personal note, they will be able to sign their name on the card after purchasing.
Thanks an advance for making this a fun activity for the students! #friendshipweek #lancelions
