Kindness Shows Out at Oakhill
We are honored to share that Oakhill Day School has been named the Rita Blitt Kindest School in Kansas City!
At Oakhill, kindness is more than a moment, it is the Oakhill way. From celebrating acts of compassion through Panther Party shoutouts, Lifeskill tokens, and simple words of encouragement, to our Student Wellness team leading kindness challenges and spirit days, our community actively looks for ways to lift each other up. This year’s theme, Seasons of Oakhill, reminds us that every day is a season for kindness.
Kindness at Oakhill also extends far beyond our campus. Our students are deeply involved in serving the Kansas City community through volunteer work, donation drives, and service projects that make a real difference.
We are also proud to celebrate one of our own students. Oakhill 8th grader Evie was named the winner of the Synergy Services Kindest Kansas Citian Essay Contest! We are so proud of not only Evie, but here at Oakhill, over 213 essays were submitted by our students. In her essay, Evie highlighted the incredible work of Miss Kim from the Friends of Parkville Animal Shelter, recognizing the compassion she shows every day while caring for both people and cats at the shelter. Evie’s thoughtful writing and recognition of kindness in our community perfectly reflect the values we strive to live out at Oakhill.
Congratulations to Evie, and thank you to our students, faculty, staff, and families who make kindness part of Oakhill every single day.
