Equity and Social Justice in Guilford Public Schools with Superintendent Paul Freeman
The “Witness to History: Slavery in Guilford” Series continues with a talk by Superintendent Paul Freeman on Equity and Social Justice in Guilford Public Schools.
Superintendent of Schools Paul Freeman will discuss recent efforts focused on the Board of Education’s adopted initiative to ” further develop a culture, and instructional practices, that foster equity and social justice in our school community.” Work with students, teachers and school leaders will be discussed.
This virtual talk is the second of a four-part series sponsored by Witness to History: Slavery in Guilford. The initiative seeks to uncover the local history of slavery, examine its legacy and share with town residents what it finds. At the library, the group’s past Guilford Witness Stones talks have been informative and well attended.
