It is always true...treat others how you hope they will treat you!
Helping someone have a better day helps you have a good day, too! 🙂
It is a new day with a fresh start! How do YOU want your day to feel?
How have you shared kindness this week? A comment, smile or assistance...they all add up!
Your SMILES make our days better!
You are the only one who can adjust your attitude! Think positively!
You won’t be remembered for your cool shoes or “drip”, but by how you made people FEEL. Be honest, kind and respectful and you’ll make history in a good way.
"Once you choose hope, anything's possible."

See the good in others! 🙂
Start each day in a happy way! Share a smile! 🙂
Lacie was there when I was at my lowest. She helped me go through my day strongly and nicely. She is always kind toward people if she isn't in a bad mood, other than that she's always kind and uplifting
An act of kindness is a free gift (& one of the best ones)!
It is ALWAYS the season to share some kindness!
I like how Julian H is becoming very respectful and honest. He is becoming a very great HONEST student.
Think of kindness being like glitter...it sticks to everything & stays around for a long time!
Kindness is free (& the best gift)!

Kindness ALWAYS makes a difference!❤

I LEARNED COMPASSION FROM BEING DISCRIMINATED AGAINST. EVERYTHING BAD THAT’S EVER HAPPENED TO ME HAS TAUGHT ME COMPASSION.
-Ellen DeGeneres
"We rise by lifting others."
-Robert Ingersol
Your smile shares a whole lot of happiness! 😊
An act of kindness (at any time of day) will make your whole day better, too!
Doesn't it feel better when you do something kind? Keep doing that!!! 🙂
The best way to cheer yourself up is to cheer somebody else up! ?
Be the happy in someone's day! 🙂
Mr. Stanley Dunlap - Community Engagement Award
Thank you for getting our band out in the community and engaged in activities. Over the past couple of years, the band has participated in community Veteran Day celebrations, Night to Unite hosted by O'Fallon PD, Belle Fair Conference, OTHS Holiday Concert, and most recently, the City Fest Parade.
JAMS is excited to announce that our Community Engagement award for this week goes to Ms. Watkins. Her coaching skills and continued support of many of our sports teams is incredible. Aside of teaching, she finds many hours to keep our sports teams competing in our community, creating a positive image of our JAMS school. My advanced band students supported an overwhelming vote for her as well.
Back to School Foam Party!

Thank you to all students for a great start to the school year!

Yes! Many of our schools do this, because if your students take to it – then the messages can begin to overflow your school email inbox at times. Not only will a separate gmail account prevent this from happening, but you can also make it accessible to all faculty members if you choose to.
You can choose one of three ways to display your messages onto a facility TV monitor.
  1. HDMI CORD – Some schools will access their Kindness eWall on a laptop and run an HDMI cord to their TV monitor.
  2. CAST – Some schools will access their Kindness eWall via a tablet or device and will cast it to their TV monitor via a Chromecast or Apple TV device.
  3. SMART TV WITH INTERNET BROWSER – If your Smart TV has an Internet Browser (Samsungs), then you can place your Kindness eWall link in the browser and it will run from there.
Yes! You can edit the text of any message before Approving it. In addition, if you’d like to keep a message but would like to remove an included image… or if you’d like to keep an image and remove the text, then you can do this before Approving the message. Your Rotating Display will only display exactly what you choose to make visible.

You will have a back office ADMIN PANEL that will allow you to customize your colors, logo, title, and font size.
Upon your request, we can replace your current Anonymous Submission Form with a Form from your school’s email system (ex. Google Form). This makes messages come to you with the author’s email address included, and you simply COPY/PASTE the message onto your INSTANT POST Page in order to make it live.
(Note: Because messages are submitted through your school’s email system, the Kindness eWall collects no data or information – making it fall within all school privacy regulations.)
We can provide your Tech Team with a simple line of code that will allow them to embed your Rotating Display of Approved Messages onto your school website, so that they are visibly scrolling whenever anyone comes to your site.
The system is set to display the 100 most recently Approved messages, as older messages start falling out of the rotation in order to make room for the newer messages. However, we can increase or decrease this number to be whatever you’d like it to be.
Your subscription includes an unlimited number of messages and an unlimited number of displays for everyone in your school for the entire length of your subscription.
