Unite With West

Resolution of Respect

     On April 21, 2005, all of Junior High West’s students and staff were given the opportunity to sign the Resolution of Respect. Every year, Mr. Galtere, the school principal does a No place for Hate orientation and discusses signing the Resolution of Respect. It is important students understand what they are signing and that they are making a commitment to live by its content. The 7th grade students then have the opportunity to sign the Resolution of Respect during team building day.
