I am sitting outside the isolation room with a kinder who needs to go home because she has symptoms. She made a drawing for me & then said, “I made you brown because you are brown and I just like brown, so I am brown too like you.” #covidsilverlining#kindergartenkidsarethebest
Shame on you @MicrosoftTeams You MUST make a change if you do not promote discrimination. This is not something for later, but for now. You changed your Emojis in the chat. Why not include everyone who raises their hands #microaggression#implicitbias#visualminoritiesmatter
@KendraSBurrows@ToddWhitaker Just saw this and I disagree. During the pandemic administrators have gone above and beyond to take care of staff. Taking care of themselves has taken a backseat. Yet we plow through, just like how the teachers, nurses ans all front liners do!
Natasha Mentore, acting principal at St-John Fisher elementary in Pointe Claire, who is Black, started a workshop that she says kids can easily identify with, and help boost the self-confidence of some students.

Nearly 80% of teachers in the U.S. are white, but a majority of students are children of color. Having teachers of color yields positive outcomes for all students.
