It was a great time with the Avon basketball family: boys team, girls team, siblings, & parents at the tailgate. Thanks to @CoachDSchauss & @AvonOrioleHoops for being great. We Are Avon, We Are One isn’t a talking point, it’s a culture.

⁦@AvonBoysSoccer⁩ is clearly about more than competitive play as they assist ⁦@MLMaierPantry⁩ with our reorganization. They represent the best of ⁦@OrioleAthletics⁩ & ⁦@OrioleTweets⁩ . Gotta love their coaches whose priorities are right on.

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

Teaching students to recognize privilege isn't about feeling guilt or blame due to their identities. It's about examining the power people have in different situations—and helping them recognize opportunities to advocate for others.

“…many of our students mimic our behavior. If we are silent around social justice matters, we send a loud message to our students about where we stand as these issues impact many of the communities we serve.”
