From the Jan 22 Board Proclamation - “...the Board calls on all district staff to teach with the resources, and engage in professional learning, grounded in the 13 Guiding Principles of Black Lives Matter at School. The Board encourages educators, students, families, and staff to incorporate the 13 Guiding Principles of Black Lives Matter at School into their discussions about race and privilege all year long by teaching Black Lives Matter lessons aligned with Washington State Learning Standards, to realize Olympia School District’s Student Outcome 4, which states 'Our students will have the skills, knowledge and courage to identify and confront personal, systemic and societal bias.'"
