The diversity of families and communities in LWSD is one of our greatest strengths. Now more than ever, we must stand up for our values of equity, inclusion, belonging and justice. When we come together—bridging divides and fostering collaboration—we can creatively and effectively address the needs of our most marginalized students.
Join us for a courageous, powerful conversation on institutional barriers, the urgent needs of our communities, and meaningful ways to support one another. We’re honored to welcome renowned equity advocate Ilsa Govan, who will lead an insightful discussion on creating inclusive and just school communities. Prepare to be inspired, challenged and empowered to take action and drive real change.
Why Attend?
- Engage in bold, solution-driven dialogue on institutional racism and systemic change.
- Gain actionable strategies to support equity and inclusion in our schools.
- Connect with a passionate community committed to justice and belonging.
