Happy World Kindness Day!
At Grant County Schools, our students receive character education lessons that help them learn the importance of kindness, empathy, and working together. Today is a wonderful reminder that kindness is a choice we can make every single day — and even the smallest actions can make a big difference.
Here are a few simple ways to spread kindness throughout our community:
❤️ Choose one small act each day — smile, give a compliment, hold the door, or lend a hand.
❤️ Send a quick message or note to let someone know you’re thinking about them.
❤️ Leave a positive review for a small business, local library, or favorite spot in our community.
❤️ Recognize someone's effort — their creativity, teamwork, or perseverance — and tell them what you noticed!
When we model kindness for our children, we help create a community where everyone feels valued and supported. Together, we can make Grant County an even better place to call home.

Just a friendly reminder, our clocks change this weekend!
Here are some simple ways to help children (and parents!) adjust to the time change:
- Get morning sunshine.
Encourage your child to spend time outdoors or open the curtains in the morning. Natural light helps reset their internal clock and makes waking up easier.
- Keep a steady routine.
Stick to regular bedtimes, mealtimes, and morning routines — even on the weekend. Consistency helps kids feel secure and rested.
- Limit screen time before bed.
Turn off TVs, tablets, and phones at least 30 minutes before bedtime. The bright light from screens can make it harder for children to fall asleep.
- Create a calming bedtime.
Dim the lights, read a story, or play quiet music before bed. This helps signal it’s time to rest — even if it feels “earlier” or “later” than usual.
- Be patient.
It can take a few days for kids (and adults!) to adjust. A little extra understanding and earlier bedtime routines can make a big difference.
