Captured: Warriors Event

We successfully put on our biggest school event of the year!  'Warriors: Past, Present, and Future' started with short activities related to Black History, followed by an open mic show, followed by food and a student art gallery in the lobby.  We had about 70 attendees and had a lot of positive feedback.

Lessons learned:
- Consider and communicate behavior expectations and consequences before the event.
- Test all technology in advance.
- Involve as many groups of people so it becomes students empowering students, not a random event of us adults pushing our own agenda.  We ended up involving social studies students, the drumline, art students, and the Senior Council. 

Drumline! Later, about 30 students performed original or favorite poetry or hip hop.
