York Region DSB board of trustees has voted 10-2 in favour of officially renaming VSS to Hodan Nalayeh Secondary School.

Thinking of those who died in Atlanta & their families. Cross-racial solidarity is important in fighting hate, white supremacy, & all forms oppression including anti-Black racism, anti-Indigenous racism, anti-Asian racism. #StopAsianHate #antiAsianracism
