Students from seven #EPSB high schools shared their vision of a future without racism and hate through the @abeelfoundatn Shaping the Future Sponsorship Program. Twenty #EPSB students were awarded scholarships towards post-secondary education for their creative entries. #yeg
Next Wednesday, we’ll be wearing pink. Join us in marking #PinkShirtDay on February 23 to stand up to bullying and spread kindness! #EPSB#yeg#EPSBPinkShirtDay

"The creation of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is one single step on a long path ahead. It is a journey that requires all people in this country to travel together." https://t.co/IFn2YQNme6
These words sit in my office, beside a note from one of the sweetest souls who walked many important chapters with me. I seem to look at them on the days I need to read them the most. Today was one of those days. Just in case you need them too, I’ll leave them right here.
Today is Asian Gold Ribbon Day. Asians and non-Asians adorning gold ribbons demonstrate courage and unity to stand up against anti-Asian racism. It is an outward expression signifying pride in Asian heritage and culture. https://t.co/j9oDp8IyLw
On behalf of Queen Elizabeth High School, we wish our families who are celebrating peace and happiness. We know times are uncertain and challenging right now and we hope Eid and this time with your family brings welcome respite. https://t.co/BVEiNrRV5D
We got home late tonight (9:00pm), drove by our school and parking lot still full of cars, and my daughter said “hey that’s my teachers car”... reality for so many teachers as they prep for our kids tomorrow. Please remember to be kind to our beloved teachers!
In response to a weird conservative video... a Twitter convo between @pancholi_rakhi and @JanisIrwin (have I mentioned that I work with the best humans?) ♥️😂👇
Today I spoke in support of @ThomasDangAB's motion to denounce racist & hateful symbols. I shared my own experiences w/ racism. And how they lead to shame & being silenced.
We need to stand with our neighbours and say, "You are one of us. You are safe. You are welcomed." #ableg
