November Kindness Month

November is Kindness Month. Here are five easy and simple ways to introduce more kindness into what you do.
- Pick up trash. This is so easy! Whenever you see trash or something that needs to be picked up (even if it wasn’t yours) pick it up! This helps the janitors and keeps our school looking nice!
- Smile and say hi to people. This idea is so simple and effective. All you have to do is smile at someone you pass in the hallway. This can brighten anyone’s day!
- Help others when they don’t understand something. School can be confusing. If you get a subject but know someone is struggling, help them out! Create a study group.
- Say thank you. If someone helps you with a project or holds the door for you, say thank you! It shows your appreciation and is courteous.
- Write a nice note and give it to someone. Take five minutes and write a note to some. Explain why you enjoy their company and why you think they are so awesome!

![Rhyan Miller is the April student of the month. Miller is the daughter of Charity and Rich Miller, and has maintained a 3.925 GPA. Her three favorite classes in high school have been drama as literature, Prostart II, and news journalism. Miller participates in cross country, theater, individual and large group speech, the prostart team, student council, NHS, silver cord, and track. She feels that her experiences in those activities have made her more extroverted, sharing that she is "not afraid of [her] own voice anymore." Miller plans to attend Winona State University to major in psychology and minor in political science. Her advice to others is to "Fake it 'till you make it." She feels she was selected as student of the month due to her increased active presence in the classroom. She is also thankful for the good parking spot. In honor of her achievements, Raccoon Valley Bank has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.](https://blackandredgister.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/20260427_104331-600x450.jpg)
