Burr School will strengthen and expand its Anti-Racism Curriculum by revising and adding content, aligning it vertically across all grades, and integrating it with lessons in social emotional learning, social studies, critical literacy, and more.
Burr’s DEI curriculum, created in 2020, consists of three lessons per grade and one school-wide lesson. While the lessons are meaningful, DEI should not be limited to four lessons; rather it should be woven into and across our school. Since 2020, a plethora of DEI resources for educators have emerged; by exploring these resources and creating a more comprehensive approach, we will integrate an equity-lens into all our work and help staff and students to understand how it all relates.
