Classroom filled with goodies has Houston-area students performing random acts of kindness

The RAK room, or Random Acts of Kindness room inside C. E. King Middle School, have led to a major decline in classroom disruptions.

C. E. King Middle SchoolIt’s the RAK room, or Random Acts of Kindness room, where students can use points they’ve earned on prizes like T-shirts, sneakers, sack packs, basketballs, baseball hats and more.

Dennis, along with her husband David Dennis, founded the organization Houston Random Acts of Kindness, through which C.E. King's RAK room was created. The middle school already had a points system in place where students could earn items like candy, sodas, and keychains, but principal Edward Taylor said the prizes in the new RAK room serve as a bigger motivation for students to do their best and be on their best behavior.

Taylor says the points system and the new room have led to a major decline in classroom disruptions. He’s reached out to other organizations as well to help keep the room stocked.
