Archive of Resources for Ongoing & Past Events
Below, please find resources for additional global events. As we continue to recogize the impact of being a global community, we want to ensure that we create space to keep building resources to support our students and each other.
Good teaching includes helping students process their thoughts and feelings about the world and creating space for them to bring their full selves to school. This document, Courageous Conversations with Students, provides tools, lesson plans, and practical advice for facilitating dialogues with students about power, privilege, oppression, and resistance. They were adapted by the Office of Human Relations, Diversity & Equity. Click here to view this resource
