DKIES Kindness Rock Trading Post:  Bring YOUR Rocks to Trade (all year long)

Did you catch Miss Anusha Hutchinson showing us how she designs & paints rocks?  Students & teachers say her work is AMAZING.  She has inspired us to create a DKIES Kindness Rock Trading Post.  It's next to the office, on Ayres Avenue, just across from the bike racks.  We invite you to paint a rock & take a picture of it, Take a picture & post it on social media with the hashtag: #DKIESKindnessRocks. Then bring it to school to trade!  Check out the "What's New?" Wednesday Webex to hear her tips & to create alongside her.
