Gaston Mix It Up
On Friday, November 20th, to culminate Anti-Bullying Week, W. H. Gaston Middle School hosted its first Mix It Up Lunch. Mix It Up at Lunch is a national campaign launched by Teaching Tolerance over a decade ago, that encourages students to identify, question and cross social boundaries. During lunch, students were encouraged to move out of their comfort zones and sit with someone new. Though uncomfortable at first, students enjoyed the experience and learned new information about their classmates.
