No Place for Hate
Since the 2012-2013 school year, Seneca High School has earned recognition as a No Place for Hate school as designated by the Anti-Defamation League. In order to earn the No Place for Hate designation, Seneca High School students and staff must create at least three projects that challenge students to think more critically and engage in meaningful activities that explore the value of diversity and teach skills to stop bias and bullying.
During the 2019-2020 school year, Seneca High School earned our No Place for Hate designation for the eighth consecutive year. The No Place for Hate program helps schools challenge anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia and all forms of bigotry.
See below for a complete list of our ADL-approved No Place for Hate activities.
