A special meeting of the Palm Beach County School Board will be held this week to discuss a new equity statement that was just approved a couple of weeks ago.
Parents are upset about a line that reads: “The School District of Palm Beach County is committed to dismantling structures rooted in white advantage.”
Parents spoke out at last week's meeting when the topic was brought up after midnight.
"We should not be ashamed from what the color of our skin looks like. We are children of God."
Board Chairman Frank Barbieri spoke out in favor of changing the wording.
