The students at Indian Hill School learned an important lesson in being kind to other people. It’s based on the book “Have you Filled a Bucket Today?” by Carol McCloud. When you are nice, friendly and helpful to someone else, you are a bucket filler. f you are mean, say an unkind word or hurt someone, you are being bucket dipper.
Indian Hill has a mural in the hallway created by all of the students, expressing themselves as Bucket Fillers. They pass by it several times a day and it reminds them to be a bucket filler.
It’s great that the Maple Dale-Indian Hill School District consistently has some of the best test scores in the state and has great art and music programs - but teaching a child to be a good person is an invaluable life lesson that will stay with our kids for the rest of their lives.
This is a great lesson for the kids...In fact, they could teach adults a few things as well.
