PRIDE LESSONS: HELPFUL

Staff members at Highland Terrace developed a set of elementary lessons and activities to acknowledge Pride Month and were willing to share them with other schools (Thank you HT!!!). The Pride Month Lessons are organized by grade level and week. Additional communication for families will be shared as we get closer to June 1. We’ll also be working in the fall to review and update lessons that can be used for BLM in schools and Pride month.
