Weekly Updates

Today is World Kindness Day, which highlights and encourages acts of kindness. In honor of this day, our Middle School students shared messages of kindness and gratitude and pinned theirs to the trees on the Green. Soon, the whole campus will join in! The trees serve as reminders of the kindness we strive for every day at Porter-Gaud.
