To the editor,
I agree completely with Michael Hyman’s words of May 22. Thanks for publishing them.
Some know me as “Dr. Ev”, formerly in Youth Services at Ferguson Library. In that capacity I have seen that not all students or neighborhoods enjoy equal services and facilities. I heartily support Superintendent Tamu Lucero’s work to change that.
The Stamford Board o Education’s 7-0-1 adoption of an Equity and Diversity Statement in April is most welcome and its implementation necessary. I wonder why it wasn’t unanimously supported.

STAMFORD Live-streaming from the classrooms is a critical component in the proposal to reopen Stamford’s high schools, but teachers say they aren’t required to do it.
A memorandum of agreement, or MOA, between the Stamford Education Association teachers union and the Board of Education from October states teachers “are encouraged to provide some instruction to their assigned in-person and remote students simultaneously through live-streaming.”
