Hey people, looking good so far! My question is: Is it alright if I sign up for one class as my first class for one period, but also as my second choice for another period? Thanks!

Yes, it is okay. We're working so that nobody will have the same class twice so if you're doing that to try and ensure you get in class that's okay -though we can't guarantee you will get it.

Rosetta Lee

Rosetta Lee is a teacher at Seattle Girls School and currently leads SGS outreach efforts as a national speaker, trainer, and consultant. Experienced in a variety of areas, including equity and social justice, single-sex education, ethics education, and neurobiology, Rosetta is excited to join us and teach two fantastic workshops! 

  Morning Workshop 1: What I Said and What I Meant: Cross Cultural Communication 

Description: In this workshop, we will examine cross cultural communication theory as well as communication issues affected by identity, power, and privilege.  Through examples, discussions, and exercises, we will see that the conflicts we experience are often a failure to understand one another rather than a failure to accept one another.  Through effective cultural communication, we can better create an inclusive community and positive change in the larger society.

  Morning Workshop 2: What Boys and Girls Are Made Of: Gender and Sexuality 

Description: In this workshop, we will examine societal gender bias and how it shortchanges men, women, and transgendered people throughout their lives.  We will also examine how heteronormativity and homophobia work to keep gender norms even more tightly in place.  Through exercises, discussions, and more, we will discover how gender and sexuality inclusivity can address a wide range of issues, including bullying, gender bias in the classroom, sexual violence, gender inequality in leadership, and more.

Rabbi Daniel Septimus

Rabbi Daniel Septimus was born and raised in Houston, Texas. One of the most important experiences of his childhood was attending Episcopal High School. It was there that he developed a passion for interfaith dialogue and understands the importance of studying world religions. Rabbi Septimus attended University of Arizona for his freshman year, and eventually transferred to Tulane University, where his future wife Amanda was attending. He applied for and was accepted at Hebrew Union College immediately after graduating from Tulane. He and Amanda were married in May 2005. From a very young age, Rabbi Septimus knew that Judaism would play an integral role in his life. His inspiration and path to the rabbinate was shaped by many people. When he started college, Rabbi Septimus anticipated going to medical school. While at Tulane University, majoring in Jewish Studies, he found his passion for the academic study of Judaism. By the end of his sophomore year, he knew that he wanted to become a rabbi. "The rabbinate combined everything I wanted to do: to learn, to teach, to work with and be a part of people's lives, to help build community, and by doing this, to ensure that Judaism will have a strong future." Rabbi Septimus graduated and was ordained from Hebrew Union College in June of 2007. "I am passionate about everything in the rabbinate. I love working with and learning from people. Whether it be lifecycle events, teaching a class and learning new perspectives from our discussions, having the opportunity to inspire a new generation of Reform Jews, or sitting across the table with members of other faiths and joining together to repair the world, every aspect of the rabbinate provides an opportunity to be a part of people's lives."
