Some students at Salisbury Middle School wanted to spread kindness and approached the school about creating a club to do just that.

The Kindness Club was created and members meet for one hour every Wednesday during ninth period. Their advisor is English teacher Beth Prokesch.

“There are seven students who chose this activity,” Prokesch said. “The goal is to spread kindness in the building.”

The students make posters, birthday cards for teachers, get well cards for teachers who are sick, are reading buddies for students at Harry S Truman Elementary School and write letters to those serving in the military.

“The kids love it,” Kindergarten teacher Dana Sugra said. “They look up to the kids. They like hearing stories. Some of the students were reading to the middle school students.”

SMS Principal Ken Parliman visited the Kindness Club members as they read to HST students recently.

“I love the way the kids interact,” Parliman said.

HST students helped pick the books for the SMS students to read and listened intently to the stories.

A little kindness was definitely delivered to HST students. The hope is the kindness will make a big difference to the elementary school students lives.
