Please RSVP here for the event by February 6.

The purpose of the dinner is for Black and African American families from the Mercer Island School District (elementary, middle and high school) to come together to promote community, inclusion, and unity.

BSU advisors are extremely proud of the hard work and dedication that our BSU students have put into making this event a reality.  Here are two videos created by BSU inviting families to the BSU Dinner.
