Creating Pathways to Racial Justice: Symposium February 23rd

Join us for a transformative circle involving educators, parents, students, legislators, organizations representing Oregon’s communities of color, state level education partners, higher education advocates, and social justice groups from around the state. On February 23rd the Oregon Education Association is hosting a very special convening centered on transformation, featuring students’ projects that highlight contributions to our schools and their cultural voices.

 

Participants will spend the morning listening to our communities about their outreach efforts and hear what their vision for Oregon schools looks like.  We will spend the afternoon in circle conversations focusing on what our collective vision and work includes: 

  • Diversifying the educator force in Oregon
  • Restorative discipline in Oregon schools
  • Family-school partnerships
  • Culturally proficient teaching and curriculum

We will end the day with a collective capstone, where we can explore next steps for transforming Oregon schools together.

When:         February 23, 2019
