During Women’s History Month, the Distri lekòl Lancaster created space for something deeply intentional. At the EmpowHER Conference, in partnership with Families in Transition and the YWCA Lancaster, middle school girls from across the district stepped into a day designed entirely for them.
Not just to participate. But to be recognized, supported, and affirmed.
“Social work is about uplifting every part of a student,” Jamie Showers, school social worker at Lincoln Middle School: shared. “It’s about helping them see their strengths, even when they might not recognize them yet. Days like this allow us to take that work outside of the classroom and make it real.”
It also reflected something broader about the district’s work. Creating a culture where every student feels seen, valued, and supported doesn’t happen by accident. It takes intention. It takes partnership. It takes a willingness to meet students where they are and to invest in who they can become.
The EmpowHER Conference did exactly that. It created a space where students didn’t have to perform or prove anything. They could simply show up as themselves.
And in doing so, they were reminded of something that will stay with them long after the day ended.
