Kindness is a way of life in Mrs. Adler's classroom at Smith Clove! In December, the students began bringing in supplies to make birthday boxes for the local food pantry. Students compiled the birthday trays today and they will soon be delivered to the local food pantry. If someone visits the pantry on their birthday, they are given the tray with all the makings for a birthday cake, along with a heartfelt message from our Smith Clovers. As Mrs. Adler says, "We’re very happy to make other people happy!💜
