This institute is meant to create movement towards building Seattle Public Schools (SPS) into an anti-racist institution.

Event Overview

We invite SPS educators, families, school leaders, staff, and community partners to join us for the Liberation Through Anti-Racist Education Institute.

This virtual event is an opportunity to examine our own identities and complicity in institutionalized racism and anti-Blackness. We will listen and learn to leaders from Black and Brown communities—both youth and adult leaders, engage in discussion in racial caucuses and explore ways to move towards action.

This institute is virtual and invites will be shared after you RSVP.

The event is optional and each day runs from 9am - 12pm PST.
