We invite all available teachers to join them in this exciting (though possibly scary) event. You are welcome to hang out, sit down, and join in on the fun. There will be trivia, a gallery of student-colored pictures, and hopefully kids will have the opportunity to meet someone new.

What is Mix It Up at Lunch all about?
"Students consistently identify the cafeteria as a place in their school where divisions are clearly—and harshly—drawn. So we ask students to move out of their comfort zones and connect with someone new over lunch. It’s a simple act with profound implications that we encourage educators to include in year-round efforts to promote healthy, welcoming school environments. Studies have shown that interactions across group lines can help reduce prejudice. When students interact with those who are different from them, biases and misperceptions can fall away."
