9/23/19 - Walking their talk

On Friday, some of our students participated in a peaceful protest related to Climate Action. Roughly 100 PA/PAML students walked down Copley Avenue with signs related to Climate Change. They paused at the monument in the park and two students spoke eloquently about the need to act. The event lasted about 20 minutes and then all students returned to their TA. At Peoples Academy, we understand that our students may be feeling lots of anxiety, fear and even anger about Climate Change. We respect the right of our students to advocate for causes that are important to them and support their efforts to do so in an authorized and orderly manner while at school. We thank our students for the way they conducted themselves today while allowing their civic voices to be heard. Thank you for your support and patience with the process and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

LSUU Spirit!

Great way to spend the afternoon on the soccer pitch!

In an effort to increase positive interactions, expectations and connection between Stowe and PA, I'm encouraging folks to attend at least the first half of Monday's girls soccer game. The game starts at 4:30. At half time, we will be bringing both teams, and as many fans as possible, together for a photo and free popsicles. This is an opportunity to mark the beginning of a new relationship and partnership between our two schools.
