“Suggest what is right, oppose what is wrong;…and if you are not popular, you will at least be respected; popularity lasts only a day, respect will [be passed on] to your children.”

Many of you may have heard about ways that schools around the country are sending messages of strength and unity to the students who survived the recent shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. At lunchtime every day from now until March 14th, there will be a few classrooms open for students to go and create banners or signs expressing our support which will be displayed around our own campus. We will take photos and share it with them through social media, as is their stated preference. Anyone interested is invited to come to room 20 (Lewczyk), 27 (Miller) or 32 (Gough) TODAY at lunch and make signs that show support for and unity with these students.
