School City of Mishawaka kicks off Fist Bump Fridays

MISHAWAKA, Ind. - Mishawaka High Schoolers lined the sidewalks of Beiger Elementary School Friday morning to kick off the School City of Mishawaka's Fist Bump Fridays.

Fist Bump Fridays is a program that brings high school students to School City of Mishawaka elementary schools and John Young Middle School to greet students with a fist bump or high five and encouraging words before the students head into class.

The program is new this year and encourages a positive relationship between younger kids in the school system and the high schoolers they look up to.

ABC57's Summer Horan was at Beiger on Friday morning, catching up with students and staff participating in the event.
