This week students at Cherokee Trail High School in Aurora got ready for their homecoming by selling T-shirts that say “Be Kind.” It’s part of an effort by a special group at the school called Be Kind Club .
Peyton Michlig and Mark Petre are seniors at the Colorado school and described their class — the Class of 2025 — as the “class for change.”
A CBS Colorado news crew was there as they walked the hallways of the school overwhelmed with nostalgia. They reminisced on their time at the high school and all of the changes they’ve been part of.
“I really want to make a big impact on CT so being it’s the last year I just wanted to take it all in and make the biggest impact I can,” Michlig said.
“I want to leave this school better than it was when I came here,” Petre said.
It’s a goal the two feel like they’ve accomplished through one simple act. It’s written on their T-shirts and something the entire student body now prides itself on.
