We, Grandview Teachers, are respectfully reaching out in regards to our students of color. We have noticed a persistent pattern this year of our students making uneducated, exclusionary comments towards and about our students of color.

We have utilized the relevant Character Counts lessons and include diverse perspectives but still need more.

We are asking the district to research and provide additional curriculum or resources that explicitly teach the importance of multicultural diversity and inclusion to supplement Character Counts as part of our vision to engage, educate, and empower.

Thank you for your consideration and your continued support for all of our students, especially our students of color.

Respectfully,

Grandview Teachers
