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.



       Take The Pledge - Join The Cause




      Elementary School

         •  I promise to do my best to treat everyone fairly.
         •  I promise to do my best to be kind to everyone—even if they are not like me.

         •  If I see someone being hurt or bullied, I will tell a teacher.

         •  I will help others to feel safe and happy at school.
         •  I will be part of making my school No Place for Hate.


      Middle/High School

         •  I will seek to gain understanding of those who are different from me.
         •  I will speak out against prejudice and discrimination.

         •  I will reach out to support those who are targets of hate.

         •  I will promote respect for people and help foster a prejudice-free school.
         •  I believe that one person can make a difference—no person can be an “innocent”

             bystander when it comes to opposing hate.
         •  I recognize that respecting individual dignity and promoting intergroup harmony are the

             responsibilities of all students.
