“At our school, Teach Kindness offered an opportunity to reinforce and extend our current initiatives to create a true, community school in a district and neighborhood surrounded by economic inequality, violence, and negative messages.”

“At Center City PCS Brightwood, our students make a daily commitment to achieve with heart, achieve with greatness, and achieve with others in mind. Our staff is dedicated to teaching our students about the importance of being scholars who exhibit strong character. Teach Kindness was a perfect complement to support the kind of growth we wanted to see in our students.”

Principal Rachel Tommelleo, Center City PCS Brightwood, Washington, DC

After a few weeks of making an effort to be kind, Teach Kindness became easier and easier to take part in. Teachers noticed less liter around the school. The Administration commented on fewer students being threatening and violent. One teacher commented, “Teach Kindness was a great idea!” Many of the staff members used the website to find lesson plans to continue the kindness into their classrooms.

“By actively teaching kindness, we are demonstrating its importance and as we continue to foster it within our building, we are developing character and respectful citizenship in our students. As one of our students aptly said, “Kindness isn’t just a word – it’s a whole lot more than that.”

Katie Thompson & Meghan Sharp, Kindness Co-Captains, Northwest Guilford Middle School, Guilford County, NC

“Teach Kindness allowed our students — and staff! — to reflect on how their smallest actions can have a positive impact on the world around them. It strengthened our collective sense of empathy and made us a closer, more supportive school community.”

Greg Dohmann, Principal, Jefferson MS Academy, D.C. Public Schools

"We are seeing improvements in school climate and the feedback from my middle schools has been incredibly positive. Guilford County Schools' educators share that the lessons and activities are engaging, and the interactive technology is user-friendly. Parents have also been very pleased with Teach Kindness and we have received uplifting media coverage. Given the challenges facing our middle schools and the fact that the MSKC is high quality and free of charge, I recommend taking advantage of this excellent resource."
