Alice is our quiet achiever!

Her lovely nature and kind thoughtful actions make her just beautiful to be around. She recently saw that another student was feeling left out so she went about quietly to include that student. The ripple effect she started was that that student felt great, and then told their mother who felt great and she told Miss Bridgette who felt happy and proud of her...thank you for spreading the joy Alice!
