Celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride Month

Disponible en: Español

Dear Aldine Community,

June marks LGBTQ+ Pride Month. This month and every day, we celebrate our LGBTQ+ staff, students, and families that comprise and contribute to the Aldine ISD family.

I am committed to creating affirming and safe learning and work environments. Spaces where everyone knows they are valued and supported.

Let’s take time this month to recognize the past and present struggles, the victories, and the work that is yet to be done — the work we are committed to doing.

As superintendent, I am committed to ensuring our LGBTQ+ students, staff, and families can show up every day as their authentic selves.

All means all in Aldine. We want every student to thrive in our schools. Together, let’s help create spaces that are safe, inclusive, and welcoming for all.

We are stronger and #BetterTogether. Happy Pride Month!

With Aldine Pride,

 

 

Dr. LaTonya M. Goffney
Superintendent
