Yesterday, George Floyd was laid to rest to be with our heavenly father in heaven. Around the world, voices are heard praying for change and people are seen working to make those prayers and pleas heard. Within the past two weeks, there has been a lot of news coverage around the protests, looting, and the inequality within our society. Along with our world still dealing with a global pandemic, this is a lot to take in at once.

Thanks to the help of Ms. Ollie and Big Shoulders Fund, we have collected resources for our students and families to use to help them during this time. Resources include an educational anti-racism guide, free mental health guide, and ways to work with your students/children on taking in the news from the past two weeks.
