Each day our kids come to school to learn not only core subjects, but life skills. At BYDS part of our mission is to guide and teach our students about Respect, Cooperation, Gratitude, Integrity, and Responsibility. If you notice, our 5 Life Skills have a common thread – Kindness. As part of these core values each year we host an annual Kindness Week. Each day will focus on a theme which aligns with our life skills and students will participate in fun and enriching activities. Our students will be immersed in an atmosphere of kindness through individual daily challenges, designated times for critical thinking and discussion, and even faculty to faculty acts of kindness.
