FWCS joins in inequity effort
United Front to address racism
ASHLEY SLOBODA | The Journal Gazette
Fort Wayne Community Schools is joining a citywide, yearlong effort addressing racial inequities.
Superintendent Mark Daniel told a Facebook audience this week the district is fortunate to have administrator D. Faye Williams-Robbins participate in the steering committee for United Front, a cultural competency training program.
Williams-Robbins is chief of student, family and community engagement.
“Our schools are just microcosms of our community,” Daniel said Tuesday during his monthly Facebook Live update. “If we can work hard in our schools to create racial justice, to eliminate bias, to create equity, what a wonderful – what a wonderful, wonderful – initiative.”
