Background:
At its July 2020 meeting, the Board referred Resolution 2021R-010 to the Committee on Student Achievement and School Innovation. At its August 2020, meeting, the Board took action to adopt Resolution 2021R-010.

Since the Board's action, the Administration implemented the resolution for the 2020-21 school year. This included assembling the 2020 Black Lives Matter (BLM) Week of Action and a Year of Purpose Advisory Committee and creating sub-groups. The Administration will continue this important work for the 2021-22 school year, and has begun its planning.

For the 2021-22 school year, the committee and sub-groups are being updated and will meet regularly. The Administration will continue to provide quarterly reports to the Board on its planning for the current school year relative to three key areas:

Curriculum & Professional Development
Week of Action
Monthly School Projects

All sub-groups will include student representation to ensure student voice is heard.
