Concordia Elementary School

On Wednesday, May 6, Concordia students and families are coming together to raise awareness for National Walk, Ride &amp; Roll to School Safety Day.
From 7:45–8:30 AM, a special event will take place on the school’s blacktop, where the Concordia community will focus on building safe habits, supporting one another, and reminding everyone that safety is a shared responsibility.
In partnership with the Mission Hospital Trauma Team, Safe Kids, and Safe Routes to School, this morning highlights the importance of knowing the rules, using protective gear, and staying alert—whether you’re a driver, bicyclist (electric or manual), skateboarder, walker, or jogger.
By practicing smart safety habits and looking out for one another, we help build lifelong safety skills for our children and our community.
Community members are welcome to join us
on the blacktop for this impactful morning of awareness and action!

Award-winning Bob Gossom film closes National Poetry Month and opens Mental Health Awareness Month
Poet and playwright Bob Gossom brings back his acclaimed film Versified! The Human Equation for a limited encore streaming, blending contemporary poetry, motion, music, and storytelling to close National Poetry Month.
The film streams from 3 p.m. PT April 30 to 9 p.m. PT May 3 at bobgossom.com/film-viewing.
Adapted from Gossom’s acclaimed poetry collection The Human Equation, now in its expanded third edition, the production explores vulnerability, humor, contradiction and the shared experiences that connect people across generations and backgrounds.
First staged in Los Angeles, Versified! The Human Equation evolved from a live ensemble production, praised by reviewer Javier Ronceros for its performers who embody “dozens of characters in a dance of the human condition.”
This encore not only marks the shift from National Poetry Month to Mental Health Awareness Month, but also highlights poetry’s ongoing power for reflection and emotional wellness.
“Poetry has always been a place where people can process what they’re going through, often before they have language for it,” Gossom said. “It creates space to reflect and begin to heal.”
Writer, actor and director Levy Lee Simon praised Gossom’s distinctive voice and range.
“His vision and imagery leap from the page into the mind,” Simon said. “Bob has his own style. Versatility is his secret weapon.”
The production has received multiple honors, including Best Adaptation from the SoCal Film Awards in 2025, Best Original Idea from the Top Indie Film Awards in 2026, and Best Ensemble Cast from the Bare Bones International Film Festival in 2026. It also earned nominations for Best Writing and Best Editing.
Gossom is available for interviews, readings, and commentary on poetry’s cultural role and the connection between creative expression and emotional wellness.&nbsp;
Purchase The Human Equation at Amazon, Apple Books, or Barnes &amp; Noble, or here: https://bobgossom.com/books/

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum presents the 15th annual Linda and Tony Rubin Lecture program <a href="https://www.ushmm.org/online-calendar/event/wcpubp10426" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">“Antisemitism Then and Now”</a> on Thursday, April 30, at 6 p.m.
Holocaust history has the power to teach diverse audiences to think critically about the dangers of unchecked antisemitism. Museum historian Dr. Daniel Greene will explore the relationship between conspiratorial thinking and antisemitism, going back to its origins. He will focus on a notorious and widely distributed propaganda tool, “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” and how it continues to be used to spread antisemitism around the world today. 
Linda and Tony Rubin, dedicated supporters of the Museum since 1994, will open the program with remarks. Their annual Rubin Lecture has consistently brought thought-provoking discussions on Holocaust history and education to audiences in the Western Region.
“We are deeply grateful to Linda and Tony Rubin for their enduring commitment to Holocaust education and for making this important annual lecture possible,” said Carol Stulberg, the Museum’s senior advisor for leadership giving in the Western Region. “Their leadership continues to bring critical conversations to our community at a time when understanding antisemitism has never been more urgent. We are honored to welcome Dr. Daniel Greene, whose research and experience helps illuminate how antisemitism has evolved and why confronting it—through education, awareness and historical truth—remains essential today.”
The Museum’s Western Region encompasses the 10 western states, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Washington. Since opening in 1993, the Museum has welcomed more than <a href="https://www.ushmm.org/information/press/press-kits/united-states-holocaust-memorial-museum-press-kit" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">50 million visitors</a> from all over the world, including more than 120 heads of state.
<a href="https://www.ushmm.org/online-calendar/event/wcpubp10426" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">“Antisemitism Then and Now”</a> program is free and open to the public, but advance registration is required. For questions or more information, please contact the Museum’s Western Regional Office at 202.817.4725 or email <a href="mailto:westernteam@ushmm.org">westernteam@ushmm.org</a>.
The program will take place at Sinai Temple, located at 10400 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90024.

A nonpartisan federal educational institution, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum is America’s national memorial to the victims of the Holocaust, dedicated to ensuring the permanence of Holocaust memory, understanding, and relevance. The power of Holocaust history challenges leaders and individuals worldwide to think critically about their role in society and to confront antisemitism and other forms of hate, prevent genocide, and promote human dignity.
