#BeKind Initiative Expands To Liberty Elementary School

CANTON, GA -- Liberty Elementary School is the latest school in the Cherokee County school District to launch the #BeKind initiative!

Liberty joins Hickory Flat and Sixes elementary schools, Clark Creek Elementary School STEM Academy and E.T. Booth Middle School in the grassroots effort inspiring students and teachers to create a culture of kindness at their schools.

• Sign up for the Canton-Sixes Patch newsletter!

Hickory Flat's PTA was selected as a National PTA School of Excellence last year after launching the #BeKind initiative in their school and community.

The Beta Club at Sixes Elementary School recently traveled to Canton Elementary School STEM Academy to read with kindergartners and present them with books as part of the #BeKind program at Sixes, which began earlier this school year.

More information on the initiative can be found at http://www.2bekind.com/index.html.
