Echo Lake Elementary will be joining The Great Kindness Challenge for the tenth year, the week of January 27 - 31, 2025.
The theme this year is "Color The World With Kindness."
The week will kick-off with an assembly featuring juggler and inspirational speaker, Greg Bennick. Our Shoreline schools superintendent, Dr. Susana Reyes will also speak.

As part of "The Great Kindness Challenge" we are participating in a coin drive- "Kind Coins for Kenyan Kids" that supports tuition and supplies for students in Kenya attending a school Echo Lake helped sponsor in 2016!
A fun week of color inspired spirit days will add to the fun of the kindness week, including grade level color dressing.
This is always a fun week at Echo Lake, but the emphasis is that kindness is more than just a week at Echo Lake!

I'd like to know how the coins will be converted - hopefully a bank will run them through a coin counter and they not need Coinstar and lose 10% or more for the service?
ReplyDeleteHow are they collecting coins?
