Why P2 For Heart River Elementary


We are proud to have Heart River Elementary School, leading the way for The Positivity Project in North Dakota.  Below is an excerpt from an article that was originally written by Kayla Henson for The Dickinson Press on November 10, 2020 about the impact it is already having for their students.

At Heart River, two 2nd grade students were arguing on the playground.

“When they came in, the teacher was listening to them and their concerns, and she said, ‘Well, our character trait we’re learning about this week is forgiveness. Do you think you girls could sit down and talk through this and use that character strength of forgiveness to work your way through it?’ They agreed to it, and they were able to resolve their situation they had,” Muffley said.
