[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They need to put their money where their mouth is an hire African American Latinx etc lead teachers and administrators and a Cultural Competency person.  
They need to learn how to reach kids of all colors and SES levels.  No matter the color kids that have possible come from a very structured school or lack of free choice and self motivated learning situation will need extra help to adjust.

We are new to Lee as a pk3 family this year so I can't speak to broader issues with how they reach kids of color but my daughter's lead guide is African American and the school just hired a "director of equity and inclusion" who is latinx.[/quote]

They have also hosted parent equity workshops and opened a school EOTR with the "continued mission" of closing the opportunity gap while also stating at the PCSB hearing that they anticipate serving the same population as their Brookland campus. I think its more a matter of checking off the DEI checkboxes. [/quote]
