Examining Justice and Diving Into Real World Discussions

Funded Oct 22, 2020

Thank you very much for your support in allowing us to dive into authentic and timely discussions surrounding racial injustice, equality vs equity, and the many current events that show how far we have yet to go as a nation with the purchase of a class set of the text, Just Mercy.

It is an incredible text, and though the challenges of this year impacted my ability to share this text with students in the way I normally would, we were still able to meet virtually and learn from one another via discussions.

Additionally, several teachers in our district have since borrowed the books and are reading them for their own professional development with the hope that they can continue to dive even deeper into discussions, research, and analysis with students in the coming years.

Thank you again. We truly would not have been able to offer the same level of timely reading, discussion, and collaboration without your generosity.”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Schuh
