DIVERSITY IN OUR SCHOOLS
I learned about this event from a fellow writer and friend, Jill Miller Zimon. She’s the mom of three kids and one who cares a lot about her community. In the year that an African American has broken the racial barrier, and at a time when our country reflects such diversity in age and wealth, exploring diversity in our schools seems like a pretty good idea!
Here’s what she sent:
On Monday, December 1, the Orange Schools Foundation will present, “Diversity in Our Schools” with Dr. Anthony Muhammad, a nationally-recognized educational expert and president of New Frontier 21 Consulting. Dr. Muhammad deploys a straight-talking “no excuses” philosophy to ensure all students’ achievements.
Attendees will participate in an interactive workshop that will focus on understanding diversity in our schools and learning how, with their children, they can develop strategies for educational success.
The event will take place from 7:00 – 9:00pm in the Orange High School Auditorium. The Orange High School is located at 32000 Chagrin Boulevard in Pepper Pike. For more info: 216-831-8600, ext 5001 E-mail: orangefoundation@orange.k12.oh.us
