Can't Miss Event @ ICE--Wed February 7th
/Around the state, Regents exams are in full swing while 3rd-8th grade math & ELA tests are just around the corner. Meanwhile, whether it's the media covering the latest words coming out of the White House or our own kitchen tables, the topic of race and racism is on full blast.
It's the perfect backdrop for our February 7 PTA meeting, which will explore the connection between race/racism and high-stakes standardized testing in NYC's public schools. A panel of Brooklyn and Bronx educators will shed light on the historical origins of these tests and how they impact students and schools. We'll also hear about an alternative to business as usual (from an ICE teacher)! This event is open to the public, so please share this invite with friends from other schools, including those from the elementary schools your kids attended. While not required, we ask that you RSVP by Feb 5 so we can determine what size room we need.
