D20 The district announced that the DEI Consultant Selection Committee has been chosen in their October 2nd, 2020 newsletter
It is a diverse committee ranging in age and representing many other demographics. There are educators, working professionals, stay-at-home caregivers and members of our military community. I am confident it represents the many viewpoints of our district.
A public comment supportive of the DEI program was recently made at the October 1st Board of Education meeting and the September 17th meeting .
We reaffirm our belief that all students should be treated as individuals and that DEI programs are antithetical to that. We object to the idea that DEI programs are necessary to address the problems the district faces or to prepare students to be compassionate and empathetic members of society.
