Tuesday October 23rd Hudson is celebrating Mix It Up Day.
Students will mix it up by sitting with different people at lunch and
getting to know someone new. We will also recognize Mix It Up Day by
wearing mixed up clothing! If weather permits, we hope to have lunch outside.
What is Mix It Up at Lunch Day?
A national campaign launched by Teaching
Tolerance over a decade ago, Mix It Up at Lunch Day encourages students to
identify, question, and cross social boundaries. We ask students to move out of their comfort
zones and connect with someone new over lunch. It’s a simple act with profound implications. Studies have shown that interactions across group lines can help reduce prejudice. When students interact with those who are different from them, biases and misperceptions can fall away.
