Unity Day is October 16, 2024
Unity Day (October 16, 2024) is a national event dedicated to promoting kindness, acceptance, and inclusion while taking a stand against bullying. On this day, Middletown Public Schools will join communities across the country in celebrating diversity and fostering a positive school environment. We encourage everyone to wear orange as a symbol of unity and support for those who have experienced bullying.
While Unity Day brings special attention to this important issue, we emphasize the need to stand up against bullying every day of the year. By participating in Unity Day and embracing its message year-round, we strive to create a safe and welcoming atmosphere for all students. #MPS4ALL #MPSFutureMakers
