Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day Media Kit

Free Resources for Your School or Community

Choose the materials that fit your plans. Use classroom resources to guide student conversations, social graphics to share your participation, and editable templates to invite local news coverage.

Start with Student Conversations

Help students reflect on Ruby’s story, discuss a change they want to make, and take action in their school or community. The Day of Dialogue Guide offers a starting point for meaningful learning before, during, and after your observance.

Share Your Participation

Let your school community know how you’re taking part. Download ready-to-use graphics and sample captions for announcements, event-day updates, and reflections afterward. Include your own observance date and details before posting.

Invite Local News Coverage

Help local reporters tell your students’ story. Customize a press release, share your event details in a media advisory, and use the sample emails to introduce your plans. The fact sheet and talking points can help your local spokesperson prepare.
