[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stone Ridge is a great school...my daughter loves it!  They need to stop with the Critical Race Theory poison.  All that does is create division where none exists.  I’m a minority just to let you know.  [/quote]

Thanks for your perspective PP. Are you opposed to the overall DEI effort by SR, or just the particular Multicultural Festival breakout groups that have caused concern among some families?[/quote]

This sounds like a PR person. [/quote]

I wrote the post and I am absolutely not a PR person.[/quote]

Then what are your thoughts on the issues you presented?[/quote]

I think the DEI effort that SR has undertaken is important, especially in light of the feedback they received from their students and alumni of color last summer. I think the Better Together discussions among parents they have conducted have been good, but there hasn't been one for awhile and i wish more parents participated. My DD is a 9th grader and participated in the Multicultural Festival and thought it was good. She was in a White Accountability group and did not feel threatened - she said she learned a lot and it helped her appreciate the history of white privilege in our country. The students themselves help lead the DEI efforts in the Upper School too, so they have a voice in the process.

Like anything else, there is always room for improvement, and not everyone is going to like it. But I think they have made a good faith effort to do better than they have in the past and work to make the school more cognizant of the need to be more inclusive. [/quote]

Wow.  Accountability groups for children.  They have totally jumped the shark.  I am jaw dropping shocked that there has not been press on this.  [/quote]

You have no idea what the sessions were like - you just focus on the title of the group. And these are high schoolers, not young children. [/quote]

+1 to this. 
Wrong 14 is a child. This is beyond inappropriate and not within the scope of any school. These are household discussions. The school overstepped and the HOS should step up, apologize, and step down.[/quote]
