Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. (Pause). Actually, words can and do hurt. Our words can comfort and express that we understand or that we “see” the other person in front of us. And of course, our words can do the opposite: they can hurt, isolate and make someone feel insignificant. Today, pay attention to the words you are using to speak with others. Are they kind, uplifting, or inspirational? Or are they mean, derogatory, or offensive? Know that the words you choose to use matter and then choose to be kind. Use your words for good. Join us at lunch at the Appreciation Station and send a note of kindness to someone else.

This week celebrates acts of KINDNESS. It all starts with one act – one smile, one compliment, one favor for a friend or classmate. RB students and staff can model kindness and raise awareness of how words and phrases can negatively impact experiences and a sense of belonging within the school environment. It’s an opportunity for RB to demonstrate a positive mindset and to leave the world better than they found it and inspire others to do the same.
