Member of the No Place For Hate organization, Paige Barclay (12) holds the Unity Week schedule, which shows the various topics like mental health, multiculturalism, gender diversity, immigration, and ableism that will be presented throughout the week. This year, members worked collaboratively towards the common goal of making a positive difference in their community. “It took a lot of creativity, a lot of teenwork, just a lot of little details that had to go into it to be perfect. A lot of things like the titles, theres a lot of key terms, a lot of communication with the principal, as well as with the guest speaker, said No Place For Hate Adviser Fernanda Villalba. I would hope that other people would still want to learn about other people on campus and their perspective and reality and how to just understand them better.
