Celebrating Pride Month at NVUSD

 

For the fifth year in a row, the Napa Valley Unified School District raised LGBTQ rainbow flags at the district office and at its 26 school sites in celebration of, and in solidarity with, the LGBTQ NVUSD community. The flags will be displayed from June 1 through June 14, the last day of school. 

Raising the flag is aligned with the district’s equity policy and nondiscrimination/anti-harassment policy as well as Board Resolution 19-30, adopted in June of 2019. In May 2020, NVUSD’s Board of Education unanimously approved the flying of the rainbow flag on school-owned poles in the district, which encompass campuses in Napa and American Canyon.

“NVUSD is fortunate to have a wonderfully diverse population and is proud to demonstrate support for our LGBTQ students, staff, and people across Napa Valley and American Canyon,” shared Superintendent Dr. Rosanna Mucetti. “As a symbol of inclusion, these flags represent our commitment to ensuring school environments are safe and inclusive for all our students.” 

More information will be shared on NVUSD’s social media sites throughout the month.
