Students across our district high schools organized a walkout yesterday and converged on city hall to voice their opposition to ICE. Community members showed up along the 3mi walk from our campus to pass out water and snacks to the youth. Beautiful scenes all around.

Oh you mean the homie DUMPER, as my students named it. I’m sure this company is making good money that could have otherwise been used to support student learning.

Q students had fun with today as we explore race as a social construct:

According to the 2020 U.S. Census question about race (question 7), how many of these folks are white?
