Character Counts

Samantha's school does this "Character Counts" thing where they talk about Six pillars of Character. One of them is "Caring" and for the month of January Samantha was nominated from her classroom as the representative for that characteristic. They sent home a little note telling us there would be a reception for her (and the other recipients). We didn't tell her about it and she was very, very excited when she found out. She got a little treat and they took a picture of her with the Principal. It was nice.


This is what her teacher said about her: "I am nominating Samantha for the pillar of caring. She is always caring for others. She is always helping other students when they need it. She hugs friends when they are sad. She is always so concerned for everyone else's feelings. She is so sweet and I enjoy having her in class very much! Thank you Samantha for being a caring friend!"
