[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thoughts after the zoom yesterday?

Alexander Duncan -https://www.acpsk12.org/news/?p=17771  He was at Minnie Howard during the rape cover up. He certainly has a background that many can identify with.  Says he will support teachers on discipline which would be a good change from Balas. His concern for safety does fall flat considering the rape and the violent fights.

Marcie Rice - I like that she started her session and greeted parents in Spanish. And it sounds like she would continue to support student walk outs on political issues that the district supports so the students can do that without punishment. She'd also continue restorative justice program and fully supports current equity push.

Why do students need to walk out?  If the district wants to support civic and political engagement, then they should have a class on that topic.  And current political issues can be included as they come up through discussions/reports/letter writing exercises.  Walking out seems like the least educational way to explore these issues in a school setting.[/quote]
