Pinon Elementary showed off its new Buddy Bench this morning!
A buddy bench is a way for students can sit if they are feeling lonely or are in need of a friend. If you see someone another student sitting on the bench, other students are encouraged to approach and invite the student to join them!
The buddy bench helps students combat feelings of isolation, promote kindness and encourage children to be inclusive and empathetic towards their peers!
Great job, Eagles!
