November kicks of a full month of giving in our community. At St Mary’s we believe that spreading kindness should be a part of your daily routine. Through the month of November students and families collected donations for the local Stevens County Food Shelf. In addition to the month-long collection, students and staff also celebrated World Kindness Day on Thursday, November 13th. In honor of Fred Rogers staff wore their favorite cardigans. Students wrote notes of kindness to each other, and spent the afternoon decorating coffee sleeves with encouraging messages. The coffee sleeves will be distributed with purchase of hot drinks at Common Cup in Morris.

Spread love and kindness this holiday season.
