NO Place For HATE
Galena Park I.S.D. is proud to participate in the Anti-
Defamation League ‘No Place for Hate’ program!
The No Place for Hate initiative provides schools and
communities with an organized framework for combating bias,
bullying and hatred, leading to long-term solutions for creating
and maintaining a positive climate.
Our ‘No Place for Hate’ coalition, made up of students, staff
and community members, work together to facilitate campus-
wide anti-bias and diversity related activities for our campuses.
You can help us achieve the ‘No Place for Hate’ mission by
talking to your child(ren) about the following:
1. Building inclusive, safe communities where respect is the
goal and everyone has the opportunity to thrive;
2. Empowering students, faculty, administration and family
members to take a stand against hate and bullying; and
3. Sending a clear, unified message that all students have a place to belong.
