Unity Day - National Bullying Prevention and Awareness Day
Our district, along with our community partners at the City of Livermore, Livermore Police Department, Livermore Public Library, and Livermore Area Recreation and Park District (LARPD), have developed a week-long celebration to emphasize the importance of treating everyone with kindness in our community. ALL people in Livermore should feel included and welcome. Unity Day is a day to come together and remember that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness, be accepted as who we are, and feel included. We invite you to join us as we celebrate Unity Week from October 14-18, 2024 to recognize National Bullying Prevention and Awareness Month by participating in any, or all, of the activities we have planned for everyone in the Livermore community.
