Our school district is currently going through the equity
training. And while the process is uncomfortable for all, I am
hopeful that it will make our schools a positive learning place
for ALL students. Several of us have had conversations and
looked at students with a new set of eyes because of this
training. And I personally have had some of the most intense,
useful conversations with my collegues about race and it's
impact on ALL of our students based on the training. I feel
this is a worthwhile endeavor and applaud our district for being
open to the possibility that we can all grow and change.
