LEARN FROM A NEIGHBOR
EDUCATION LEADERS ARE RESPONSIBLE for stewarding organizational change in schools. Log in on October 14th (6:30pm - 8:30pm) for a webinar on Clarifying the Culturally Responsive Framework, and hear about DEI changes made by the Peekskill City SD and how that looks in the classroom. This is a big undertaking, which requires clarity and commitment, so don't miss this opportunity to learn how Dr. David Mauricio is leading his district through this profound work - ask your district clerk to sign you up.
2021-22 ADVOCACY
JOIN US ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 4TH (6:30PM - 8:00PM) for an Advocacy Meeting to discuss this year's legislative priorities. All board members and superintendents are welcome to come give input about what issues are most important to your district, or just listen in to hear what others are focused on. We also encourage you to pop your thoughts into the recent survey sent out by the Lower Hudson Education Coalition (LHEC) to help guide their advocacy for the year (you can use the link below).
FACTS ABOUT MASK MADNESS
LAST WEEK, THE CDC RELEASED THE RESULTS of three studies highlighting the importance of masks in schools. The report makes clear that schools without universal masking policies are more likely to have COVID-19 outbreaks. This is the science that supports the guidance around making in-person learning safer and preventing the spread of outbreaks in schools.
