Animating Question

When we stop viewing each other solely as ‘students’ or ‘teachers’ and begin appreciating each other as people, can we propel teaching and learning forward with a focus on empathy and collaboration?

Innovators from the Asian Student Association had a fascinating field trip last week! They stepped into the world of politics, touring the State House and witnessing the cogs of governance in motion.

A standout moment was meeting with the esteemed members of the Congressional Asian-Pacific American Caucus. It provided them with invaluable insights into the complex roles within government and the dedicated advocacy for the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community.

As we continue to celebrate AAPI Month, this hands-on experience highlighted the power and significance of representation and influence in policy-making. 🌟🌏 #aapi #asianstudentassociation #civicengagement #representationmatters
