         <title>Providing opportunities for students to talk about how they&#39;re doing.  I would ask them something like, &quot;I&#39;ve been checking in with students I&#39;m meeting after the violence in D.C. and all that happened there.  I&#39;m curious if that&#39;s something you&#39;d like to talk about, or if it&#39;s something maybe that friends and family have been talking about?&quot;  I usually also note that people have different responses to what&#39;s happened - not feeling much, feeling scared, frustrated, confused, etc. to try to open up a couple possibilities.  - Eric Eid-Reiner</title>

         <title>We have a newly formed Soc Justice Club. The group was given an hour before the Thanksgiving break to present a webinar to all. The group also helped to coordinate a book discussion on soc justice books (optional summer reads) before the December vacation. With the pandemic we now have Advisory once a week. Recent topics have been MLK and the Innocence Project.</title>

         <title>Before a conversation with students can occur, I think that the first practice is self reflecting and evaluating.  Where do you stand, what are your beliefs, etc.? Then, educate, educate, educate. Look into whats really going on facts and opinions and then take care of yourself and your needs before you&#39;re able to offer that same support to your students. if you&#39;re unsure, let the students know and refer them to people who can provide them that space and resources. </title>

         <title>Julie Love:  My PD focused on the psychological/neurological aspects of how people of different races interact, and thus addressed that this is NOT just an issue in &quot;diverse&quot; communities, that districts with few (if any) non-white people need to confront the neurological impact of such homogeneity. </title>

         <title>In Revere Public, equity and working toward being an anti-racist district is embedded in our 5 year district improvement plan which trickles down into each individual school&#39;s improvement plan. We have developed an Equity Advisory Board (EAB) which includes staff members from each building along with students from the 3 middle schools and high school and community members. This EAB is getting support from the Greater Schools Partnership and we are also conducting an Equity Audit across the district. Each school also has an individual racial justice committee.</title>
