Throughout the pandemic, our nation has seen a rise in hate crimes against the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community. This week, I’ll be working to amplify the voices of AAPI students and let them share with you their own experiences with racism and anti-AAPI hate

Kicking off the week is Vick Kidder, a senior at Magruder High School.

Hello Seniors! Some good news for you, all caps, gowns and celebration posters will be provided to you for free! If you or your school has already paid for any of these, they should be getting reimbursed. Congrats to our graduating class, just one more quarter to go!

Tonight at 7!!

Starting soon! youtu.be/hIvftAiz2i8

Anna Cheng, Senior @ Richard Montgomery High School

Yun Yeung, 8th grader at Takoma Park Middle School and MCJC-SGA president

It’s crazy that today was my final day of MCPS instruction. What a great ending to this *unique* year though!!

We had the opportunity to tour Brenda Wolff and Nick Asante through the addition projects at AES. We highlighted the partnership of so many offices in @mcps that made this all possible. Thank you Moco BOE for the support and funding of this much needed addition! #tqtweet
