小黄鸭导航 ISD to Celebrate Pride Month with Flag Raising

小黄鸭导航 ISD will celebrate Pride Month with the raising of the Pride flag at the district鈥檚 Central Office on Friday, June 4. 

Pride Month, which occurs every June, commemorates the Stonewall Uprising of 1969 that served as a catalyst for the gay rights movement in the United States and around the world. In honor of this celebration, the 小黄鸭导航 ISD Pride Committee and staff will gather to raise the flag at Central Office. The ceremony will reiterate the district鈥檚 commitment to LGBTQIA+ students, staff and families. 

Every year, to celebrate LGBTQIA+ students, staff and families, 小黄鸭导航 ISD hosts its own Pride Week. This is a time to highlight the district's commitment to creating a safe, supportive and inclusive environment. This year's Pride Week, 鈥淐elebrate, Inform and Inspire,鈥 took place April 19鈥24. It was the most visible Pride Week in AISD history. 

Additionally, AISD has partnered with Out Youth and the Texas GSA Network to debut the Be A Beacon LGBTQ+ 101 and Anti-Bullying professional learning courses to all staff. AISD will also be participating in the 小黄鸭导航 Pride Parade on the evening of Saturday, Aug. 14. These are all ways to show our community that all are welcome in AISD!
