We're so grateful for Mrs. Smith!

SECONDS COUNT
Kindness Citation SPD-00106 thru 109

You never know when an emergency will present itself but when it does it is amazing to have the right people around. At a local elementary school, Harmony and her classmate noticed that another one of their classmates was choking during lunch. Without hesitating, Harmony got Mrs. Smith, her P.E. teacher's attention, who was nearby to help. Mrs. Smith took lifesaving measures which allowed the student to breathe again.

Kindness 911, the Sandy Police and Knox are so grateful for Harmony's quick thinking and Mrs. Smith’s lifesaving actions on this day. Thank you for being there for each other!

Keep impacting your community one kind act at a time!

Prepare yourself for this one… it is awesome!!
Elementary kiddos are some of the funniest kids out there. Well Officer Ling of the Sandy Police Department got to meet one of those recently. Noah is a third grader and a great source of humor and fun. He is in an electric wheelchair but it never gets him down. His humor and fun-loving personality are constantly cheering up the school’s staff.

There is a running joke with the staff that Noah was going to get a ticket from the police because of how fast he zooms around the school. On this day, Officer Ling showed up and told him that he was going to write him a “Kindness Citation” which made Noah laugh.

The fun wasn’t over yet. Noah challenged one of the school’s staff members to a race. Officer Ling couldn’t help but pull out the handheld radar and clock Noah zooming by at the speed of fun!!! Noah was a great sport and well deserving of his Kindness Citation!

Principal’s MessageChoosing to focus on the positive. It is really easy to focus all our energy on those things that are not working so well. I find myself doing this periodically. Why do I do this, probably because it is a natural instinct, and it seems to be a proficient way to address issues here at Firwood. Although this is true, I recently read an article that talked about focusing on those things you h...
