From the Clear Creek Independent School District

CCISD - Whitcomb No Hate imageLEAGUE CITY – Whitcomb Elementary School students Brianna Salazar and Giselle Salazar, along with the entire Whitcomb community came together for a family art night that featured activities that embrace the school’s commitment to being “No Place for Hate.” Whitcomb Elementary is a community working together to ensure acceptance and exploring of different cultures.

The Anti Defamation League’s No Place for Hate® Program is the cornerstone of its anti-bias and diversity efforts. No Place for Hate® schools, houses of worship, businesses and community organizations earn their designation by utilizing the program’s resource guide to complete activities that actively challenge hate and bigotry.

During the semester, students have received a classroom guidance lesson that focuses on the No Place for Hate® message and the teaching of tolerance. The students then signed a proclamation that has been displayed at the school declaring that they will actively challenge hate in all forms.
