World Kindness Day - Kind Like Joey
Former Butler student, Joey Edwards, was a special student who helped others feel welcomed and important when he was a student at our school. He was a Butler Bear who always found the time to show kindness and appreciation to his friends, family, and teachers. Sadly, Joey passed away in 2018 - and to honor him, family and loved ones carried on his legacy with the Kind Like Joey Foundation - which serves to support families who have experienced loss and to recognize the importance of Kindness in our world and community. On Wednesday's World Kindness Day, Butler wore Yellow and Black in honor of Joey and to recognize the importance of this day! Some classes created kindness bracelets from supplied donated by KLJ - giving one to the guidance department, one for a friend/family member, and one to keep for themselves.
