We end October by taking a moment to reflect on Breast Cancer Awareness Month and to recognize those in our community who have faced this challenge. This month, schools throughout the district organized a variety of awareness activities, including workshops and walk-a-thons, with each school hosting its own PINK-themed event. To wrap up the month, Brooks Middle School held a workshop with speakers from Family Christian Health Center and some of our own survivors.
Whittier School worked to create a beautiful, hallway-lined theme for the occasion and provided parents with an informative seminar on the subject.
Harvey Central Office Team also showed their support-- "We honor our fighters and encourage the fight!"

While students head home early, our teachers dive into professional learning, exploring new strategies and technologies to boost student success. Behind the scenes, our coordinators play a vital role. Last week, Mrs. Simcha Dixon (Math) and Ms. Christina Montgomery (Literacy) partnered with teachers to review i-Ready scores, set growth goals, and design strategies for achievement.
Today, we wrapped up our Grandparent celebrations as Whittier School welcomed their “Grands” to an Emerald and Gold Affair. Grandparents and students joined in on some line dances, and students showed off their latest moves. Principal Ms. Manuel and the Whittier staff thank Board of Education members Mr. Joseph Whittington and Mrs. Janet Rogers for joining in on the fun. Parents were excited to be part of such a special event. Wow, our grandparents ROCK!
