On Wednesday, October 12, several upper school students participated in an all-day offsite symposium with the U.S. Attorney’s Office and other law enforcement agencies focused on building relationships between the community and law enforcement. The event was titled, “Building a Bridge of Trust” and was part of our school’s thematic focus on justice and law. Speakers included lawyers, civil rights leaders, police officers, community leaders, and FBI agents. Students also engaged in problem solving activities related to building connections between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. Student participants included Ryann Mellion, Aliyah Lee, Emanuel Smith, Jacob Stocker, Madison Nowland, Lindsey Johnson, Antoine Wallace, Maya Woods-Arthur, Kellin Jeffries, Addison Johnson. Throughout the school year, students in various grades also take part in other justice-themed events including movies, marches, visits to the city council, interviews with veterans, and trips to the Superior Court.
