Dear Friends,
This month, many of us may be celebrating holidays and spending time with loved ones. December is Universal Human Rights Month. According to United Nations, “Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.” Human rights are for every one of us. We each have qualities which make us unique, and this is special. There is also so very much that unites us as humans.
As we connect with those dear to us, let us think of the things for which we can be grateful, and be kind to and honor one another with dignity. Let us also remember to keep space in our hearts for friends among us (and the friends we have not yet met) who may be going without having basic needs met. If you have the opportunity to help, please consider volunteering at the San Antonio Food Bank, who has and continues to do so much for our community and beyond.
This month, we are offering three virtual teacher sessions on December 1, 10, and 13. Please see details, along with registration links, at the bottom of this newsletter, in the section labeled Professional Development: Upcoming Trainings. A special thank you to Firstmark Credit Union for their generous support of KLRN's educator training sessions. Learn more about upcoming sessions and events at klrn.org/events.
Awesome Educators, we also want to let you know about the Alamo STEM Ecosystem Educator Conference on Saturday, February 11. This full-day conference is free, and will be held at the Scobee Education Center and Planetarium. Please learn more at this link.
Please reach out with any questions at any time. Thank you for what you do.
With Appreciation,
KLRN Education Team

Transportation is vital for almost every aspect of daily life from commuting to and from school or work to visiting friends and family and everything in between. Cars, trucks, buses, and countless other vehicles use resources, so it is important to find ways to conserve these resources.
