Lisle Elementary School celebrated International Dot Day on Friday, September 13th where all our students wore dots, and learned about celebrating creativity, courage, and collaboration. Based on the story “The Dot”, by Peter H. Reynolds, which tells the story of a caring teacher who dares a doubting student to trust in her own abilities by being brave enough to “make her mark”. What begins with a small dot on a piece of paper becomes a breakthrough in confidence and courage, igniting a journey of self-discovery and sharing, which has gone on to inspire countless children and adults around the globe.
