John,

February 14, 2018, our lives changed forever at Marjory Stoneman Douglas
High School.

Just minutes before a preventable tragedy struck, we were in the same
classroom. Schools are supposed to be safe havens for learning, but that
day, we were tethered by a tragedy no one should ever have to endure.

Back then, we were teacher and student, but today, we are friends and
partners in the movement to end gun violence. Jaclyn leads March For Our
Lives, demanding systemic change from lawmakers. Ivy returned to the
classroom as a teacher and now serves on the Teachers Unify Crisis
Intervention & Support Team, providing trauma-informed care.

We both live in D.C. now, and whether we’re getting brunch or seeing a
show together, we’re grateful for the support from a fellow survivor.

As the anniversary of the Parkland shooting approaches, we are struck by a
heavy, unchanging truth: The onus of school safety continues to fall
almost entirely on the shoulders of those inside the building. Students
are still mapping exits in their heads between classes. Teachers are still
keeping their voices steady during drills so their students don't absorb
the fear adults are holding.

[ [link removed] ]We are tired of a system that asks teachers to be first responders and
students to be survivors. That is why our organizations are coming
together.

We know the weight of this fight because we have carried it for years. But
we also know that when students and teachers lead together, we build the
foundation of safety that everyone at school deserves.

please split a donation between our organizations to support our work
today.
