"Centerville students ROCK"
This year for World Kindness Day, our K-5 students painted rocks; some with positive messages and some with unique artwork! They hid the rocks all around town in hopes to brighten someone's day if they happen to find one. Post a picture of any of the neat rocks you may come across!
