Paine Students Give Helping Hands

HELPING HANDS: One of the building blocks that creates a strong community at Paine Elementary School is older students serving as helpers and leaders for the younger students. This was on display today as 6th grade students took part in helping and encouraging the younger students during the bus evacuation drill. This is just one of the ways school-wide connections are made on campus. The older students are thrilled to feel needed, as they develop their abilities and strengths. The younger students thrive on the individual attention and interaction with positive role models.
