Valley Stream North's Black Student Union seeks to enhance North's community. We are an inclusive organization that is open to students of all backgrounds. We desire to create a welcoming learning environment that is judgment-free and a safe space. Through a mixture of information and discussion, we serve to educate and inform the community. We want our meetings to transpire into how North students conduct themselves: respectfully, integrally, kindly, and with the utmost confidence. With a focus on Black history and culture, BSU delves into perseverance and overcoming adversity. Discussing current events and topics gives our members insight concerning the minority youth of America. Above all, we put an emphasis on embracing the younger students at North. The sooner they feel empowered, the sooner they can outwardly influence the community here at North and around the world.
