In an effort to promote kindness and encourage empathy, New Hartford Central School District elementary students participated in the Utica Comets’ anti-bullying assembly.
Students in grades 4-6 at Bradley, Hughes and Myles elementary schools were introduced to The Comets Code:
Care for those around you
Offer help to those in need
Make others feel valued
Encourage and support others
Treat everyone with respect
Spread positivity
During the assembly, Utica Comets players shared examples of how they demonstrate kindness both on and off the ice and encouraged students to share their own acts of kindness, highlighting the positive impact they can have.
The assemblies coincided with National Bullying Prevention Month, which is observed in October. The annual campaign is focused on educating and raising awareness of bullying and its prevention.
