Beyond helpful with a child in our class.

Helped a child in class with his math when he was struggling.

A huge help with getting two first grade students upstairs so they didn't get lost.

Helped bring a child in our class his backpack when he left it on the blacktop.

Showed kindness when helping a friend pick up all of the things that she dropped.
