Woodbrook Elementary PTO

In our January 15, 2020 Parent Council meeting, the Equity and Diversity Advisory Group members presented the 2018 ACPS Equity Report and PC reps engaged in dialogue and small group activities around the main themes of the report.  Dr. Haas also shared some updated data from the 2019 State of the Division Report.  Dr. Hairston also spoke about the ACPS Culturally Responsive Teaching Initiative.  These reports along with the presentation are available on the PC website: www.acpsparentcouncil.org.  The Parent Council will be continuing to participate in these important conversations and will be meeting with PTO Presidents and Treasurers in our February meeting to consider how PTOs can collaborate to address the ACPS diversity and equity initiatives.  Please contact your PC REP, Jen Smith, [email protected], with any questions or for more information.
