Attention all Bobcats who are 16 years of age or older. Did you know that you are eligible to receive the vaccine to protect against Covid? BOYCP is partnering with The Resurrection Project (TRP) to get our students registered to receive the vaccine at St. Anthony's hospital. A team from TRP will be at BOYCP on Thursday and Friday this week during lunch periods and after school on the plaza to get you registered for an appointment at St. Anthony's Hospital. If you are under 18, you will need to have a parent or guardian present at the appointment. Students who are learning at home will also have the chance to sign up via a form that will be emailed out on Thursday.

TRP will be hosting an info session for students on Wednesday at 12:35. The link for the meet is emailed to students so that you can ask questions, learn more about how the vaccine protects you, and some common myths and misconceptions.

Protect yourself, protect your family, protect your neighbors and don't throw away your shot!

At BOYCP, we stand against racial injustice. We stand against the tragic and senseless killing of Adam Toledo last month, a 13-year old 7th grader from our neighboring community of Little Village.

Every time we pause and think about the system of brutality and institutional racism that failed Adam, we can’t help but to think about the Adams in the Back of the Yards community who were able to make it to high school. We can’t help but to think of the George Floyds, Laquan McDonalds, Duante Wrights, Quintonio LeGrier, Breonna Taylors, and Sandra Blands at BOYCP. This tragedy surrounding the end of Adam’s life and the countless others who came before Adam continue to break our collective hearts. We mourn with Adam’s parents, family, teachers, and classmates. We hope that there is justice for Adam and his family. Adam deserved more. Adam Toledo's life mattered. Black, Brown, Indigenous, Asian, LGBTQ+ Lives matter to us and to our school community.

We will continue to stand with our young people, the Back of the Yards, and surrounding communities. We will continue to hold space for our young people who need to process yet another tragic event.
