#WearYellowForSeth

**UPDATE**
Check out our photos from today here.
We had our ENTIRE school wearing yellow to support Seth. That's nine classrooms, about 125 kids and almost 20 teachers! Our class made cards and pictures for Seth to show him that we are his friends and we care about him.



Dear families,
        Continuing our lessons on kindness and compassion for others, we would like to let you know about a story about a 5-year-old boy named Seth. Seth has Severe Combined Immune Deficiency (Which means he has no immune system, often referred to as Bubble Boy Disease) and must live every day in a hospital room.

Seth’s family has asked the world to show their support for this brave little boy before his second bone marrow transplant by wearing yellow, his favorite color.

We are hoping that all of the students AND families in our class, and the entire school, will wear yellow to show their support on Friday, March 27th.

BE CREATIVE! Yellow shirt, pants, socks, shoes, scarves, headband, jewelry, or paint your faces yellow! Let's make Seth laugh!

We will be taking a picture and sending it to his family so they can print them out and hang them in Seth’s hospital room for support. You can take your own and upload it to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram by hashtagging #WearYellowForSeth

The students are SO excited to make Seth feel happy and supported, they even suggested we paint our new tree house yellow for him.

Let’s make this little boy smile!
Thank you for your support!
