Summer 2021 Community Read (Non-Functional Duplicate of the Survey)
[Do Not Order Using this Form--It is a non-functional copy of the original.]
Historically, we've offered staff and parents opportunities to participate in a community book study or community read. This started several years ago when we issued hundreds of copies of At What Cost when discussing student mental health. This summer, we are offering a series of three books that will be incorporated into voluntary books studies focused on Diversity Equity and Inclusion. All of our students will be asked to be competitive workers in a society that assumes an ability to work in a diverse world. However, our students do not live in a multicultural setting in their daily educational environments. This requires an increased focus from DCS to help prepare our students and to best educate all of our students.
If you are interested in sharing in one or more of our community reads, please select the book(s) you would like to read. Books will hopefully be delivered to buildings for pickup by the end of the school year (depending on shipping). Activities and opportunities for discussion will be made available closer to the summer. The deadline to request a copy is Sunday, May 23rd.
