Working At An Elementary School And The Kids Will Be Alright

By Ekt1509 • May 6, 2025

I work at an elementary school and yes kids can be terrors, but they also set an example of kindness that I think some of the adults here should follow.

Just today we had a fifth grade boy stop in the middle of his recess game to help a first grader tie his shoes. A fourth grade girl brought me a crying injured kindergartner and took care of him and volunteered to take him to the nurse. A fifth grade boy taught a group of kindergartners how to open their milk cartons. Another student accidentally brought food a girl in her class is allergic to and worriedly came to me to ask how to keep her friend safe. We have a physically disabled student who has muscle weakness but someone in her class always checks to see if she needs help cleaning up after activities.

Maybe this is just an excuse to gush over how wonderful our students are, but if all kids are like them, the future is bright.
