Hey, Facebook friends, Happy Juneteenth! Today marks the day when slavery was finally abolished in the United States. It's a day of celebration, reflection and remembrance. It's important to teach our young children the importance of diversity, inclusivity and the significance of this day in our history. Let's celebrate together by spreading love, kindness and acceptance for all. Enjoy the day, everyone! #Juneteenth #DiversityandInclusion #UnityLoveKindness
Happy Father's Day to all of the Fathers of the GCES community! We hope today brings you all the joy and love you deserve.
