The District recently partnered with the University of Pittsburgh’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion to provide all educators with a seven part educational series entitled “Developing Diversity Consciousness to Foster Anti-Racist Practices, Cultures, and Communities.” In order to provide the required time for our team to complete this series, it is necessary to adjust the student dismissal times.
Grades | Dates | Dismissal Time | Lunch Status |
K-5 | January 14 February 3 March 11 | 1:35 | Normal |
6-8 | January 13 February 2 March 10 | 12:25 (Bus Riders) 12:30 (Walkers/Car Riders) | Grab and Go |
9-12 | January 13 February 2 March 10 | 12:42 (normal dismissal time) | Grab and Go |
Please be advised that on these dates, teachers will be unavailable for their regularly scheduled office hours. Additionally, if your child’s normal transportation arrangements will change on these days, please contact your child’s school.
Through this educational series, educators will explore and engage in six key areas of diversity consciousness development to promote sociocultural growth and empowerment, and ultimately, embody the mindset to foster antiracists practices, cultures, and communities.
Thank you for your continued support of the District’s efforts to provide an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.
