NO Place For HATE

Galena Park I.S.D. has joined 1,600 school districts across
the country to become a part of the No Place for Hate
movement. With public displays of hate on the rise, it is more
important than ever for schools to commit to programs that
clearly define expectations in behavior for all members of the
community. Our school district recognizes we all have a role
to play in combating bias and bullying as a means to stop
the escalation of hate. No Place for Hate is a self-directed
program helping all of the stakeholders take the lead on
improving and maintaining school climate so all students can
thrive.

The No Place for Hate® Pledge: I pledge from this day
forward to do my best to combat prejudice and to stop
those who, because of hate or ignorance, would hurt
anyone or violate their civil rights. I will try at all times to be aware of my own biases and seek
to gain understanding of those who I perceive as being different from myself. I will speak out
against all forms of prejudice and discrimination. I will reach out to support those who are targets
of hate. I will think about specific ways my community members can promote respect for people
and create a prejudice free zone. I firmly believe that one person can make a difference and
that no person can be an “innocent” bystander when it comes to opposing hate. I recognize
that respecting individual dignity, achieving equality and promoting intergroup harmony are the
responsibilities of all people. Today, I commit myself to creating a respectful community.
