Council for Unity
working proactively against gangs
Members of the Council for Unity at RHS work together to keep RHS a
peaceful learning environment for all of the school’s students, to
erase lines of division among its student body, to promote tolerance
and to strive for unity. This year, in addition to the Council for
Unity Club, which meets as an after school club, RHS also offers a
History/English elective, which follows the national curriculum
written for the Council.
New members in the Council for Unity Club are inducted in June,
after completing the curriculum. They are working together to keep
our schools safe from gangs.
“I like Council because it brings all the students together without
looking at only our ethnic backgrounds,” shares Quadre, the Council
President.
On April 21, 2009 the Riverhead Council for
Unity Organization, with the Parent Community Organization,
received a Proclamation at the Riverhead Town
Board Meeting this past week.
This Proclamation was issued to all of the participants who helped in the
town wide graffiti clean up day which took place on
march 28, 2009. This clean-up
was a tremendous success and we hope to get more people
involved with
the next clean-up day in Riverhead. |
