Get the leadership from various student unions/clubs in the school to come together to talk about on going barriers in the school and how to build bridges.

RH commits to have consistent and open ways for students to communicate to their opinions and ideas to better our school. We want to find more ways to encourage productive discussions between students, teachers, and administrators.

Hilton - Thank you for all of your work on creating a positive and engaging summit to uplift and engage students’ voices! We are looking forward to connecting with the other clubs and extracurriculars in our building community. There are many of us who are doing this work in different spaces with student groups and never enough time to meet, get together, share space, and energy.

Webster Schroeder had a great time community building and connecting with others from different schools. We have taken in a lot of knowledge and insight and plan to implement what we’ve learned into our club. We can’t wait to come back next year, thank you for this amazing opportunity! :)

Greece Olympia and Athena say THANK YOU! Greece participants loved the snowball activity to get to know each other. We LOVED the Wilson Pearls and the idea of celebrating a team of students from other schools in the county.

Spencerport High School is very thankful for all the hard work that went into making today a great success. The Wilson Pearls step team was amazing to experience and the breakout rooms were eye-opening for some of our students. We are excited for next year’s events!

Webster Thomas High School. Students enjoyed the individual connections that were made today. Building Bridges came across most in the Jubilee session. Our students wished there was more of a balance between building bridges and breaking barriers. We recognize that now it is our turn to go back to our school and figure out how to break the barriers.... We are thinking about how it might look to do some kind of conference similar to this within our own building. The hope is to engage more students that aren't of the same mindset as those that are gathered here today and create positive change.
