No Place for Hate by Dana Ratliff (TWE Counselor)


 

The Wilson Wolfpack is working to create an environment where all cultures, races, and colors feel empowered, appreciated, and accepted. To help with this goal, a No Place for Hate committee was established to design activities where all students could showcase their individuality. During Day of Service, students were encouraged to design a “quilt square” representing their unique heritage. The No Place for Hate committee combined these squares to create quilts displayed throughout the building. Take a look if you find yourself in the TWE hallways.


 
 
 
“The No Place for Hate® initiative provides educators and students with the resources to ensure that anti-bias and diversity education are an integral part of the school curriculum.  No Place for Hate® also helps to create and sustain inclusive school environments where all students feel valued and have the opportunity to succeed by promoting respect for individual difference while challenging bigotry and prejudice.” (Excerpt from http://houston.adl.org/noplaceforhate/)
