Student Equity Council, Grades 6-8

Funded Mar 26, 2024

The Student Equity Council (SEC) and myself appreciate your donations to help us acquire various items to establish us as a group. They help to provide a calm and welcoming environment to our students, encouraging kindness and acceptance. We created our very own logo and folders, to collect our discussion/ project paperwork. With the sublimation paper, we created 2 T-Shirts for each member; One in our school colors and SEC logo, the other was a pink shirt that we all wore on our 1st annual schoolwide Anti-Bullying "Pink Shirt" Day.

In working together, providing information to the school via announcements, videos, and a curriculum (we developed together) presented to classes, we had a great turnout with 100s of students and staff wearing pink to stand up against bullying.

We are looking forward to continuing our mission this year of increasing the understanding of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in both the school setting and in life. We will inspire autonomy amongst students, encourage equity, self-advocacy, and one's ability to legislate change. We will amplify student voices and support learning and motivation in a way that is meaningful and relevant to the students.”

With gratitude,

Ms. FURMAN
