“WE” at Holly Harshman Elementary School are empowering each and every student to be a #differencemaker. Students are recognized by other students, teachers and staff. School officials said, “WE are witnessing incredible moments every day. Sometimes it may be helping an injured friend. Sometimes it’s grabbing a backpack for a class mate with full hands. No act of kindness is too small. WE want to impress upon our students that they can change the world. WE all have the power within us!”
“I wanna be different; I wanna be changed; ‘Til all of me is gone; And all that remains; Oh is a fire so bright; The whole world can see; That there’s something different; So come and be different; I just wanna be different; So could You be different, In me” Different by Micah Tyler Begnaud / Kyle Lee
