discuss a case study of Black girls in Miami-Dade schools, and
their experience with harsh school discipline policies. The girls
reported harassment, harm, humiliation and other challenges.
The study provides recommendations to promote a positive
school climate through holistic school safety.

Thank you to the John Joseph Zitnay and Theresa Zitnay Trust
Terry Zitnay was a long-time member of the Flagler Branch and we recently received news of this unexpected and most generous bequest to the AAUW Flagler Local Scholarship Fund (501c3). The generosity of this gift will enable the branch to continue and expand our scholarship activities for many years to come.
STEM CAMPS FOR YOUNG GIRLS
We send rising eighth grade girls to the AAUW FL Tech Trek camp each summer. Girls live on campus in residence halls, attend core classes, hands on workshops, field trips and a Professional Women’s Night. Potential campers must be in the seventh grade, nominated by their teacher, complete the application process and interview before selection is made by an AAUW state committee.

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS
We offer scholarships to qualified graduating high school seniors, continuing education students and middle and high school girls in grades 6 – 11 pursuing the study of the creative arts. Our branch also donates to the Take Stock in Children program administered locally by the Flagler County Education Foundation.
