🤝💡Student Voice Matters!💡🤝

Members of the Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council recently met with Dr. Tammy Garrett to engage in meaningful conversations about dress code and other important topics impacting our schools.

These discussions provide valuable #student input that helps guide district decisions and ensures our schools reflect the needs and perspectives of those we serve every day — our #students!

We’re proud to empower student leaders and create spaces where their voices are heard. 💬✨
