Wellington: Peaceful protest invitation for the community

Wellington: Peaceful protest invitation for the community

This is a copy of email communication sent to all Wellington parents. 

Dear Wellington Community,

We are reaching out today to share an invitation to join in a peaceful protest against racial injustice on behalf of concerned Wellington parents and students. This peaceful protest will take place downtown at 3 p.m. today. Anyone who wishes to join should convene near the center of the front of the Ohio Statehouse steps at 3 p.m.

While this is not an official Wellington event, Wellington continues to take COVID-19 seriously and we urge all students, families and staffulty to take the proper precautions while joining in protest. If you are sick, or a family member is ill – please join this protest from home out of an abundance of caution. We have included some information on protesting safely. Also, there is not an expectation to wear Wellington gear as this is about a greater issue.

Warm regards,
Tonda Adiansingh P '16 '20 '24, board of trustees member
Dr. Jeff Terwin, head of school
