The Student Equity Council is doing big things! The student group held a meet and greet to get to know each other, and learned about goals for the 2023-24 school year. These plans include participating in more healing circles around various issues and populations, including race, gender, LGBTQIA+, veterans, accessibility, survivors, and mental health, and are planning collaborations with other student groups.
