💛🌎 World Kindness Day – November 13 🌎💛
Today we celebrate World Kindness Day, a day dedicated to promoting kindness to others, to ourselves, and to the world around us. 💕
First introduced by the World Kindness Movement in 1998, this annual celebration reminds us that even the smallest acts of compassion can make a big difference — a smile, a helping hand, or a simple word of encouragement.
Let’s all take a moment today to spread kindness wherever we go — in our classrooms, hallways, and community. Together, we can make the world a little brighter! ✨ #WorldKindnessDay #Bowiebuilt

🚍✨ It's National School Bus Safety Week! (Oct 20-24) ✨🚍
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s NHTSA reminds all drivers to slow down and stay alert around school buses. Remember, passing a school bus is illegal and can be deadly for kids.
🛑 When you see flashing red lights and a stop arm extended, you MUST come to a complete stop. This isn’t just a suggestion; it’s the law!
🔶 Yellow lights mean the bus is getting ready to stop. Slow down and prepare to stop your vehicle. You can only move once the red lights are off and the bus is moving again.
Stay aware of the “Danger Zone”—the area around the bus where children are most at risk, including:
-10 feet in front of the bus
-10 feet on either side of the bus
-Behind the bus
Let’s work together to keep our children safe! For more info on school bus safety, visit: NHTSA School Bus Safety - https://www.nhtsa.gov/road-safety/school-bus-safety....
