Happy World Kindness Day! Here at Preschool Programs we discuss kindness everyday! In our front lobby we have a kindness tree where anyone can add a leaf of kindness and today we had a few friends from Mrs. Mann's class do just that!

🌟 Happy World Kindness Day! 🌟
Today, Fredericksburg City Public Schools join millions around the world in celebrating the power of kindness! We encourage everyone—students, teachers, staff and families—to take a moment to share a kind word, lend a helping hand, or simply make someone smile. Every act of kindness makes our school and community a better place.
Let's spread positivity, compassion, and kindness not just today, but every day! 💙

Preschool programs students had one last visit to the farm! It was a beautiful fall day full of learning and fun! Students discussed the life cycle of a pumpkin and got to see some animals before jumping on a hayride!
