This week is Ally Week. Every year, the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network and students across the country, often as members of Gay-Straight Alliances (GSAs) celebrate Ally Week. Here at VVHS we are focusing this week on educating our school community on ways to be better allies. What is an Ally? We refer to allies as people who support the LGBT community by advocating against the bullying and harassment LGBT youth face in school. An ally works to end oppression by supporting and advocating for people who are stigmatized, or treated unfairly because of who they are. Anyone can be an ally! What can you do? During lunch, come to the A hall eatery or look for a member of the GSA handing out Ally name tags and wear a name tag for the week. In addition, there will be a round table discussion for teachers during lunch on Wednesday in Ms. Phaneuf's room, A120. The discussion topic led by our GSA Hawks will be "How to Be a Better Ally to Your Students". And who better to learn from than our students. So I encourage all faculty and staff to come on Wednesday and support the students. Dessert will be provided. Contact Patricia Phaneuf for more information.
