(Eastern Ontario) – Hundreds of students and staff from over 40 elementary and secondary schools across 1,200 kilometres of the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) are featured in a new video called “2015 UCDSB Shake It Off.”
The video, inspired by Taylor Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off,” was created by the UCDSB Communications and Relationship Management department after the success of the “UCDSB Happy Dance” video created in 2014.
Each participating school choreographed a dance that represented how students and staff felt about the song’s lyrics which encourage tolerance, inclusion, and speaks out against bullying. Many schools also incorporated the board’s #SEEMYVOICE hashtag that is used to promote equity and inclusion.
