Mrs. Bartels Den class at Mattoon Middle School recently applied for a grant with the Hannah Mansell Happy Day Foundation. Hannah was an interpreter at Mattoon Middle School who sadly passed away from covid. Her family carries on her sweet and giving spirit with grants to spread kindness. ❤️
The class decided that they wanted to share some kindness with the MMS custodial staff because they work hard, are always smiling, and are willing to help anyone in need. 🫶
Students coordinated buying lunch for the custodians from Angelo's Pizza and Ginger Ale's. Mrs. Bartels stated, "I am very proud of my Den for thinking of others and we are honored to keep Hannah's spirit of kindness alive." 🥰
