Friday Grade Sheet Printout Day

Hello lovely ladies!

Don't forget on Fridays we print out grade sheets and the group homework, which will be due Monday, is to take it home to be reviewed and signed by your parents. Don't ruin the group goal. Help show care and concern and remind each other. Make it your FB status, text someone, catch them when they get on the bus!

And remember: It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday! Have a great weekend, make good choices.

Go Purple!

Millions of people around the world wear purple on Spirit Day to show support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth and to speak out against bullying.  As a response to the increasing number of young people who, feeling unaccepted, had taken their own lives. Spirit Day was started in 2010 by teenager Brittany McMillan.  Observed annually on October 20, individuals, schools, organizations, corporations, media professionals and celebrities wear purple, which symbolizes spirit on The Rainbow Flag.  Getting involved is easy.  Participants are asked to simply "go purple" on October 20 as we work to create a world in which LGBT teens are celebrated and accepted for who they are, no matter their sexuality.

On October 20^th (Thursday), we invite you to wear purple to bring awareness to and put an end to intolerance.  Please help our community understand that times will get better, and that they will meet people who will love and respect them for who they are.

"Go Purple Day"

Tomorrow, Thursday, October 20th, is national "Go Purple Day." You can wear purple in support of those who are LGBT. Purple represents the color of spirit in the rainbow flag.
