We are off and running this 2024-2025 school year. As the
Engagement and Inclusion (E&I) Specialist, I look forward to
guiding our community on Becoming Beacons of
Hope through the lens of awareness. What does this
mean? This school year we will be exploring cultural
celebrations, histories and traditions, as well as additional
topics such as neurodiversity, and intersectionality. Why
these topics? As the Pope has called us to “be tangible
signs of hope for brothers and sisters who are experiencing
hardship” we must teach our students the skills to engage and
include the many different types of individuals they will
encounter as they venture off into the world. They can
practice these skills in the safety of our St. Francis community.
