TCS is launching a new school-wide initiative called "A Passion of Kindness," aimed at fostering a positive and supportive environment throughout our school community. Project is sponsored by the Gifted and Talented (G&T) class and is designed to recognize and celebrate acts of kindness among students, teachers, and staff.

Objective: The goal of this project is to encourage and acknowledge acts of kindness within our school community. Kind deeds will be reported and reviewed weekly by the G&T class, and every Monday morning, three individuals who have demonstrated exceptional kindness will be recognized during the school-wide announcements.

Project Components:

1. Kindness Reporting System: Students, teachers, and staff are encouraged to fill out forms reporting acts of kindness they have witnessed.

• Forms for reporting will be available at the Front Office.

• A clearly labeled submission box is located in the Front Office for ease of access

2. Weekly Review and Selection: Each Friday, the G&T class will review the submitted forms and select three individuals based on notable acts of kindness.

3. Awards and Recognition: Every Monday, during morning announcements, the three selected individuals will be publicly recognized for their kindness. They will receive custom-designed certificates and tokens of appreciation.

4. Kick-Off Announcement: We will officially launch the "A Passion of Kindness" project on September 23, 2024, with a school-wide announcement.

5. Expected Outcomes:

• Increased Kindness: We expect to see more acts of kindness and empathy within our school community.

• Student Engagement: The G&T students will gain valuable leadership and project management skills.

• Community Building: A stronger sense of community and support among students, teachers, and staff.

• Recognition and Motivation: Regular acknowledgment will encourage positive behavior and a healthier school environment.
