Respect For All & Sexual Harassment Prevention

During Respect for All Week, February 9 -13, 2026, schools across the city will have the opportunity to highlight and build upon ongoing programs to help students, staff and communities gain a better understanding of diversity.

• Celebrating Kindness/Be an Ally
• Anti-Bullying/ Cyberbullying
• Respect for Diversity, Disability, Religious Acceptance and Racial Diversity
• Gender Identity, Sexual Orientation and LGBTQ Pride and Acceptance
