Hello wonderful Muir families, teachers, and staff!
Thank you so much to those who joined us last week for the celebration of Black History. What a wonderful thing it was to have so many families together again. The Muir students and staff put so much work into bringing the lessons learned during Black History Month forward in a powerful and engaging way. We also had the opportunity to learn from Black community members who spoke of history, wellness and self-love.
Please add a message to show your appreciation to our wonderful organizers and students - we are collecting thank you messages here: https://padlet.com/chenk52/sgz7iwiifvybt7ph
If you are a parent or a guardian of a current Muir student and would like to see the full recording of the event, please email info@themuirpta.org and we'll share the link with you.
