Students Represent Doyle at the San Diego Board of Education Meeting

Some of our students had the opportunity to represent Doyle Elementary at the Board of Education meeting on February 14th. Our Kindness Ambassadors and No Place For Hate leaders showcased the activities, events, and programs we have here at Doyle. They set the bar high and really impressed the Board.


Thank you to our students, staff, and families that were involved in the process and thank you to the SDUSD Board Members for having us!


If you'd like to see the students present, here is a link to the recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EL8NvvmcIk
