Details of the event are still being finalized, but the focus will be on the voices of our students and staff. Please join us for this final event of the 2019-2020 school year.
Signs will be provided, but we also encourage you to make your own!
This is a family-friendly event.
Masks and social distancing will be the norm.
After the rally, please consider shopping downtown and/or visiting one of our local restaurants for dining in or take-out.
In solidarity,
