Taking It Up
Taking It Up is a provocative 2-day seminar focused on helping us align language, knowledge, and build our collective understanding and skills to interrupt systems within our schools that are creating barriers for our students to access education, and by working together we are able to understand and interrupt the institutionalized barriers that hinder the elimination of the school district’s racial achievement disparities. The focus on working from the inside out will challenge us to step out of our comfort zone and create new entry points for becoming aware of, understanding, and interrupting inequitable policies and practices in ourselves and in our schools.
