Simpson Intercultural Center is partnering with Bellingham Public Schools, Children of the Settling Sun and Whatcom CARE to host 2nd Annual Since Time Immemorial Community Night on Wednesday, April 24 from 5:30pm-8pm at Syre Student Center.
The Since Time Immemorial Community Night showcases teaching and learning collaborations between teachers/professors and learners, highlights the outcomes of the curriculum, and supports Senate Bill 5433. The Community Night highlights collaborations between K-12 schools, higher education, Lummi Nation, and the Nooksack Tribe. Students proudly shared their learning from Lummi and Nooksack artists and educators working in their classrooms.
The first Since Time Immemorial Family Night in 2023 was led by Kirsten Jensen at Happy Valley Elementary School. The event displayed student learning and cooperative teaching with Happy Valley teachers teaching and learning alongside Lummi and Nooksack educators. The partnerships continue to strengthen, thus expanding this year’s event to include broader representation around the district and more educational partners.
Building on the success of the initial gathering, this year’s event has expanded to encompass a wider representation across the district and foster even deeper educational partnerships.
We would be honored if you could join the festivities. Your leadership in the community positively impacts our students, families, and community members every day. We look forward to sharing student learning and growth with regard to the Since Time Immemorial curriculum.
Please RSVP by April 15, 2024.
