Highland Elementary School

Highland Elementary celebrated World Kindness Day with a visit from local author Lisa Bogner, who spent time with students reading, talking, and exploring what it truly means to be kind.

Bogner shared her book with each class and led conversations about how kindness creates happiness for both the giver and the receiver. Students reflected on the small choices they make each day — including helping a friend, including others, and using kind words — and how those actions shape the environment around them.

Each Highland student received a copy of Bogner’s book to take home, giving them a meaningful reminder of the day’s message.
