It’s a fantastic opportunity for students to learn how to voice their opinions and make an impact within the school system.

Open Training Session for All Advocates

Next in line is the Training for All Advocates, set for Wednesday, October 9, also from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.. This session will be held at the Bluffton Library, right at 120 Palmetto Way. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or community member, this training is tailored for anyone who wants to learn more about advocating for our students and schools.

Understanding School Board Meetings

FABB has planned not just these two sessions but also two additional events this month! These upcoming opportunities will dive into the ins and outs of school board meetings. You’ll get the scoop on how decisions are made and how you can play a part in advocating for or against those choices. If you’ve ever found school board decisions puzzling, these sessions are perfect for you!

You can learn how to navigate the often complex world of education policies, understand what’s at stake for our students, and empower others to join in this important cause.

Don’t Miss Out!

As a final note, if you happen to have any Squishmallow lovers in your family, keep an eye out! There’s an adorable Squishmallow Advent calendar that’s expected to sell out quickly this year. And if you’re gearing up for Halloween, consider spicing up your decorations with some charming vintage ceramic trees or enchanting floating candles that would make any space feel festive and fun.

We can’t wait to see the community come together for these important events—your voice matters, Beaufort!
