New date and times! Pie Pickup - November 23rd @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm OR 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Pie and cookie pick up date and times have changed due to delays from production plant.

New! Virtual Roundtable Series
A friendly reminder that the EDI committee is looking to host a series of virtual roundtable discussions around a variety of topics this academic year for all Duffy families, but we need your input as to what will be most meaningful to the Duffy Community. Please let us know by completing a short (1 minute!) survey, which will be closing 11/19.
New! EDI Resources
The Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity Committee is pleased to share a "library" of EDI resources to help support Duffy families in learning more about various topics and issues. You can also find the link in Konstella. This cache is a living document, and we welcome suggestions for additions or requests for resources by emailing Tracy Wu Fastenberg.
New! Membership
As always, we welcome new members at any time. Please feel free to reach out to either Heidi Hojnicki or Tracy Wu Fastenberg for more information, or if you have questions.
