It was our pleasure to once again sponsor the African American Male Summit @GRHS_Stallions and @grcollegiate. In order to realize the goals and dreams set forth by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we must be willing to provide authentic experiences to those who need them. @vbschools

Through our partnership with the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities, we hosted the Power of We student leadership workshop. We want them to be able to express their ideas, listen actively, consider different viewpoints and collaborate effectively to achieve common goals.

As we rely more and more on student input and feedback, we also seek to develop their skills to communicate effectively and actively engage in difficult conversations. Today we hosted the Power of We workshop with our partner VCIC. What a great day!@inclusiveva @vbschools

Our Beach Girls Rock empowerment event is an example of what every school division should be doing to open doors and remove barriers. Young girls need to be told and then reminded that they can achieve anything they set their minds to.
