It’s orange shirt day in honor of Canada’s National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. New Millennium Academy stands with you! #OrangeShirtDay2021@NMARhinos
For spirit week I used an equity lens to select themes. My goal is for students to participate without a financial burden, and I selected themes that are accessible regardless of age or religious/cultural beliefs: favorite color, mismatch, comfy/cozy, sports, and school pride.
From an eighth grade scholar today (in her email message to me as her assistant principal): "what I like about you is how you make us students feel safe at school." Made my day!
Pride was a riot. We honor our Black LGBTQ ancestors who stood against police brutality and discrimination by continuing to fight for Black LGBTQ lives today. #BlackTransLivesMatter
The @nytimes found at least 70 people died in law enforcement custody after saying “I can’t breathe.” The majority were stopped over nonviolent infractions, 911 calls about suspicious behavior or concerns about mental health. More than half were black. https://t.co/Caauezt4CT
