Over the summer @tdsb_cebsa partnered with @uOttawaGenie to offer Black students an opportunity to take STEM courses for credits. Understanding the barriers in #STEMeducation, intentional steps were taken to engage students in Grades 8 to 12 and recent graduates.

K-12 coaches @tdsb_cebsa has called on educators to position Black Joy in their pedagogy. As many read the quote from @javonism piece, they were also tasked with thinking about the unlimited possibilities of building positive racial identity within instructional programming.

Please watch this clip of Mikey trying to switch from Applied to Academic math and then come back and tell me that students are free to switch between streams...
Mikey represents countless Black students who have had to endure oppressive streaming structures for GENERATIONS.
Thinking about the reintegration of school in community where there is more co-construction of curriculum & relationship building with families and communities: what would it mean to think of students and families as producers of knowledge and partners in their education process?
