Being anti-racist is an active role, not a passive identity. Authentic partnership means we are connecting with families not as an extra obligation but as an essential partner with shared goals of support their child/my student.

To be more mindful of the surroundings and the individual. By adhering to these ideas we should be authentic and keep in mind can be considered harmful to our students. At the same time, going forward in reaching out and understanding the students so we can build that authenticity.

I think when it comes to applying these terms to teaching and learning, we need to stop and think about how we are teaching, how these students are learning. It also starts with the materials and the curriculum. I think when we apply anti-racism in teaching and learning, it starts with us, but it shouldn't end with us. This needs to happen as a collective, the system needs to reflect this anti-racism lens. How can we teach and our students learn through this lens with the system behind is doing the opposite?

# data[].attributes.body
That those two terms can go hand in hand. I think having an anti-racism mindset helps build authentic partnerships. I think in order to build authentic partnerships, we need to work towards having an anti-racism lens. We need to look at our own biases, we need to look at how we think, how we teach, otherwise how authentic can the partnership be if we aren't being authentic to ourselves first.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel really grateful to spend some time reflecting and seeing how we can improve in our teaching and biases.

# data[].attributes.body
If you think about it, those students would only have ONE PK, K, 1, and 2nd grade teacher. We get to spend about 8 months knowing the families and students. We need to value these relationships because these are the teachers they remember the most having fun or learning from.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to start looking within ourselves to see what our own bias is. How can we start working on an authentic partnership with our community when we do not acknowledge some of our own prejudices? I also believe strongly in building relationships. It takes a village to raise a child and when we are trying to instill important life skills an values, it takes all of us.

Disrupting ways of White Supremacy culture in education is crucial. I think about the ways in which I can actively engage in disrupting it. Being present and available for families beyond academics is very important. It will help to create the authentic partnerships need to build our classroom community and allow students to engage in learning.

# data[].attributes.body
I appreciate the district's approach and commitment to antiracist policies and teaching. I would benefit from models and examples of ways to reflect on my practices and think more critically about how I might change my approaches in the classroom and in dealing with students and families.

# data[].attributes.body
We have to think about the curriculum that we are being asked to teach and be critically aware that often curriculum (particularly civics/social studies!) has so many racist/white supremacist oriented ideology. We need to better develop curriculum that allows teacher to teach information that is relevant and all encompassing.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that we need to consider in this time of distance learning is truly prioritizing the emotional and physical well being in addition to simply the academic ones. We need to prioritize building relationships with our families, particularly when we are thinking about how much we are relying on them to help facilitate distance learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Authentic Partnership to me means building relationships with my students and with their families. Relationships that go beyond communicating about academics but rather focuses on building connections, ensuring parents feel heard, and allowing for parents to feel comfortable asking for resources if they need them.

I believe that this type of partnership between school and home could afford us the opportunity for some much-needed, hard conversations but could eventually produce insight; a change in perspectives; and an appreciation for differences. I am also considering, though, how some families are very private in their affairs and may not be willing to partner with staff members from their child's school in this way.

Vulnerability. I am wanting so badly for these things to become reality, and feeling how much needs to change in order for this to feel possible. I very rarely felt authentic connection with my educators growing up (here in SFUSD), so I think I need to do some mourning and healing in order to get to a place where I believe wholeheartedly that it is truly possible. I see a bright glimmer of hope here, with this training. I am willing to open my heart back up and create a space where it's safe for everyone to do so. And it will be vulnerable.

When working towards authentic partnerships with families, I think it is so important to recognize their side of the educational system. What school experiences have they been introduced to. Do they see their student being represented and advocated for? Do they feel heard? When I reflect on these questions for each individual family, it is easier for me to build a strong and meaningful relationship with them. One where my boundaries are taken down and I reflect on my own biases.
