On October 19, 2023 students, staff, and families are invited to take part in Spirit Day, an annual campaign led by GLAAD. Each year, millions of people around the world “go purple” for Spirit Day to support 2SLGBTQ+ youth in a united stand against bullying. Pledging to “go purple" on Spirit Day is a way for everyone to show solidarity with 2SLGBTQ+ youth. We stand unequivocally with the 2SLGBTQ+ community who we know are facing rising discrimination and violence. Learn more and take the pledge on the GLAAD website.
