Today’s See Something, Say Something presentation gave students important tools for recognizing warning signs and knowing what to do when they have a concern. Through the ACT message—Acknowledge, Care, Tell—students learned how speaking up and looking out for one another can make a difference. Students also received resources and information about reaching out to trusted adults.

Our West Business Leaders got out of the classroom and into the real world! Big thanks to Frank Gatto for having us at Gatto’s, feeding us dinner and taking the time to talk with our students about what it’s like to own and run a business. The students also got to ask questions and pick up some real-world advice. Great food, good conversation, and a pretty cool learning experience for our students! Interested in joining West Business Leaders this year? Reach out to Mr. Glynn on Teams to learn more! #GetInvolved
