International Day of Pink
2021-04-08
Day of Pink was started in Nova Scotia in 2007, when two Grade 12 students saw a Grade 9 student being bullied for wearing a pink shirt on the first day of school. Bullies harassed the boy, called him a homosexual for wearing a pink shirt, and threatened to beat him up. In response, the two Grade 12 students, David Shepherd and Travis Price, bought and distributed 50 pink shirts. They encouraged peers to arrive to school wearing pink the next day to stand in solidarity with the grade 9 student.
Thank you for considering to wear pink on Thursday and for fostering an environment where kindness and inclusion are the norm. Please share your participation on social media using the hashtags #DayofPink and tagging @HWDSB_Climate.

Athletic Forms – as per HWDSB, students may only participate in athletics with a completed Student Athlete Information & Permission Form. These NEED to be handed in to the appropriate coach BEFORE the first tryout with NO EXCEPTIONS.
If your child expressed an interest in trying out, they were given a form on Friday, September 10th. This form needs to be returned ASAP as tryouts begin the week of September 13…listen to the announcements.
