Courageous Conversations
Our Courageous Conversations course at the middle school and Sparks curriculum at the elementary school aim to center discussions about race and racism. Digital texts, picture books, articles, essays and other types of texts will be used to spark conversations that help students recognize individual, interpersonal, and institutional racism. Essential to these courageous conversations are the racial literacy skills students will acquire that help them to recognize, name, and challenge various forms of everyday racism.
