Local students stay engaged

Silver Chips, Montgomery Blair High School's award-winning newspaper has picked up the beat, featuring the No Labels issue on the front cover of their print edition. The article, "SGR testifies against labels" focuses on Senior Kirstyn Ross-Roach's BOE testimony before the Board of Education.

In addition to the history and context of the No Labels issue, the article describes some of the recent events at Blair, sponsored by Students for Global Responsibility (SGR). They hosted two events, one in conjunction with the Diversity Workshop student group, designed to raise awareness and connect with Student Member of the Board Alan Xie, who expressed his support for removing the label.
