Board of Regents call on school districts to acknowledge racism in America | The Daily Gazette
SECTIONS
ALBANY –The Board of Regents on Monday adopted a new statewide policy statement that calls on school districts to take up their own diversity and equity policies and consider acknowledging the role racism plays in American society.
The new Regents policy statement says all students benefit when schools focus on diversity, equity and inclusion and that those policies can “empower students from all backgrounds to visualize successful futures for themselves and provide them with a sense of belonging and self worth.”
Board members said it is important for districts across the state, regardless of their demographic makeup, to focus on ways their students are exposed to diverse groups of people and ideas and think about equity through lenses of physical ability, gender and socio-economic status.
