| Bringing Awareness to Sexual Violence “Let’s Talk About It” is a student-led Harwood club whose mission is to initiate and maintain sexual respect norms within each of Harwood’s distinctive communities, while seeking to uphold values of respect, conversation, and empathy. In alignment with this mission, we are excited to announce a month of action in support of sexual respect during April, the global Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Throughout the course of this month, various events are taking place to support survivors and seek justice in our community and beyond. These events include:

The email includes some guidance on how to interpret scores, but here is an additional resource to help explain the information in the progress report. Feel free to reach out to Jess Deane at jdeane@huusd.org with general questions, or email teachers for course-specific details. |
Quarter 4 Flex Block | Flex Blocks for quarter 4 are underway!

Students have chosen options including Junior Jumpstart (starting to work on post-secondary application essays), the Cook Up (cooking with the Harvest of the Month), STEAM, and Graphic Novel Workshop. |
