ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE PARTNERSHIP

”We believe our children have the right to live and learn in safe,

respectful and inclusive communities and schools and that no child should experience discrimination/harassment based on an immutable characteristic”---Anti Defamation League

It is our intention to expand our strong 10-year partnership with

the ADL across our 16 TK-12 clusters over the next seven years.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO SUPPORT OUR TK-12 PLANS

Address bullying consistently and fairly for all students regardless of race or

religion.

Ensure that all religious holidays placed on our calendar
Ensure that all of our district efforts pay attention to the lens of race and culture

though our work with National Equity Project rather than assign staff to work with specific religious groups.

Ensure that instructional materials follow state standards which requires

discussion of the broader context of world religions--and these materials should be the only tools staff are provided in regards to world cultures.

Advocate for all youth we serve but not in the context of culture or religion.
Support staff in the development of school clubs outside of culture or religion.
