🎁 The best gifts come from the heart. Give your students the gift of WADJDA, the delightful story of a convention-defying Saudi girl whose heart is set on the impossible goal of getting a bicycle, from Saudi Arabia's first woman director Haifaa Al Mansour. It's a great film for grades 6-12 & also for watching as a family!

There are ways to work around something like that and with communication you can work something out, and it’s not a huge issue.

Dear Dr. Cohen,

I understand you got a complaint about last weekend’s Bonfire Jambor33 at our #school. You don’t strictly need to worry about responding — this family writes to complain about literally every cultural event we have.
