I stopped on the playground, looking for photo opportunities and saw this wonderful story unfold. On the left you see this solitary First grader waiting on the newly installed Buddy Bench, hoping that someone will see that she is looking for a playmate. Next another First Grader approaches and they begin a discussion of what to do. Before they took off for the swings, I stopped them to take that final picture. This is better than Match.com!
Every day I look at your pictures and am always intrigued by the way your school works in such a fabulous way. It must be a joy to work there. and now this - what a fabulous idea! fav
