We are thrilled to shine a spotlight on our 3rd, 4th and 5th-grade Richland Panthers and the incredible ways they are giving back. This Panther Pride moment highlights their dedication, kindness, and the meaningful impact they are making in our community. Through their thoughtful actions, these students are demonstrating the values of compassion, empathy, and civic responsibility that define Panther Pride.
Through a partnership with The Giving Tree, a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching children the power of service, Richland’s school counselors guided students in Project Impact—an initiative centered on empathy and social-emotional growth.
As part of the project, students assembled over 100 “Morning Munchie Bags” for local senior citizens. These thoughtful care packages were designed to bring comfort and brighten the mornings of community members, showcasing the students’ generosity and compassion.
“This initiative not only provides practical support to our neighbors, but it also helps our students develop empathy and a sense of civic responsibility,” said Dr. Zuerblis, Richland Principal.
Richland is proud of its students’ dedication to giving back and fostering a culture of kindness. Their efforts reflect the very best of Panther Pride—compassion, commitment, and community spirit.
Well done, Panthers!
