What Is Kindness Day?
Wear Blue for Kindness (WB4K) Day began in 2018 as a response to the growing acts of violence in our schools. The McAuliffe PTSA wanted to engage our elementary school students in an age appropriate way to help them learn and express empathy and kindness for everyone. With the help of the school staff, the school district and the Lake Washington PTA, we created a day for students to wear blue (the color of peace), perform random acts of kindness, look out for those who are lonely and reach out to make new friends. 

The 2018 event was shared across the district and many schools around the state participated. We even had a school from another state join in! In 2024 we shortened the name to 'Kindness Day' for pronunciation ease.
