Cecilia Evelyn Belser-Patton is by far one of the most passionate and integrate staff members AVHS has ever seen. She has changed AV for the better and helped make our sense of community stronger. She has united seniors, juniors, sophomores and freshmen into believing that we are all one community, and that it is an obligation to look out for eachother. Mrs. BP is a part of this community,thus it is our obligation to look out for her as well. To keep silent is to consent to let this happen before our eyes. Our voices must be heard! We want Mrs. BP back! No one deserves to be judged for mistakes of the past. What happened only strengthened her and makes up the person she is today. She owned up to her actions and now it's our turn. Advocate for Mrs. BP, help bring her back home! #BanTheBox
Nobody has been able to move forward with anything regarding student voices as much as Mrs. BP has. We're able to voice our thoughts on the actions of our peers and actions of our teachers bc of Mrs. BP. She has done more than she signed up for and she does it out of heart. She isn't getting anything more out of it than a pay check. Before her, when there was a conflict between staff and a student, staff was always right, there was no meeting in the middle. She hears our voices and our thoughts, something no one else was willing to do so.
