This week we discuss:

  • Life Updates: Mikk learns all about weather science relating to fires. Shelby W. experiences some serious life changes and Déjà vu. Shelby F. goes to Reno for some work projects.
  • Real Life Talk: We discuss the importance of funding the arts in schools. Arts are an essential part of growth and development in young people. Decreasing funding of the art is a bad sign for the success of future generations. Nationwide access to art education has decreased significantly over the last 40 years and BIPOC are especially impacted by these cuts. Art education can work to combat societal issues like the "school-to-prison pipeline". Advocating for art funding is important and necessary. See ways you can get involved and join the conversation below.
