Day of Silence on 4/12/19

March 29, 2019/in High School, School Newsletter /by shayj
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The High School will be participating in a student-led national event, Day of Silence on April 12, 2019. Many of our teachers and students have elected to participate in this day, which has been a national event since 1996. The purpose of participating in this day is to spread awareness about the effects of homophobic bullying and harassment by symbolizing the silencing of LGBTQ+ students.
Students who elect to participate take a vow of silence for the day.  To participate in the day, students have two choices:
  1. Go about their day respectfully, speaking as usual.
  2. Approach the GSA table in our cafeteria and get a sticker that shows they are a “Day of Silence Supporter.”  Then go about their day respectfully, speaking as usual, or remain silent for the day.
Silence begins at 8:45 and ends at 3:15.
For more information:
https://www.glsen.org/day-silence
We want you to be aware of this day, so you may discuss the event with your child should you choose.
Sincerely,
Anthony Parker                       Paula Gearan
Principal                                   GSA Faculty Advisor
