As an organization, we honor the importance of Juneteenth. As the holiday falls on a Saturday this year, we are closed today in observance. This is a day of remembrance and response to systemic racism, and to commemorate our commitment to continued progress in our own equity and inclusion work for ourselves and our students. We encourage you to reflect, take action, celebrate (progress and resilience), honor, and observe this historical day. #ALLin
