I had a great visit to Barcroft Elementary! I stopped by the library and met with the Student Advisory Committee leaders for a thoughtful discussion. Thank you to Principal Judy Apostolico-Buck for the welcome and for showcasing the great work happening at Barcroft! #OneTeamOneAPS #EveryAPSstudent

Trans people deserve dignity.
Trans people deserve respect.
Trans people deserve love.
Trans people deserve joy.
