Connecting, Uniting, & Transforming: An Evening of DEIJ Conversation

January 12, 2021 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm EST

Dear Parents and Guardians,

 

The Waldorf School of Garden City’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ) Committee, in collaboration with the Parent-Teacher Association, invites you to join us for a conversation about our work on Tuesday, January 12th from 7:30 to 9:00 pm. We are eager to share the myriad ways in which we educate our faculty, staff, and students, and how we strive to not only meet the needs of our beautifully diverse community but also how we are taking active steps toward anti-racism. We look forward to collaborating with you in service of this important mission. Please visit our School’s DEIJ webpage here. This page, which includes a Disavowel of Rudolf Steiner’s Racist Ideas, is a work in progress and we welcome your input.

Topics to be covered during the meeting include defining norms, defining and contextualizing DEIJ, exercises for breakout groups, and how families and faculty can work as partners in DEIJ learning and initiatives. There will be time allowed at the end for Q & A. We look forward to beginning this conversation with you and the progress we can make together as we strive to ensure that The Waldorf School of Garden City is an equitable school for all.
