Social Justice Consultant Visits District June 3 and 4

Amherst Regional Public Schools has contracted with Dr. Rossi Ray-Taylor, a private consultant, to help us outline the next steps in our Social Justice, Equity and Access work. Dr. Ray-Taylor will study the districts’ commitment to BAMMS and Social Justice by reviewing documents, conducting interviews and on-site visits.

Dr. Ray-Taylor will visit on June 3 and 4 and conduct a series of focused meetings with the different stakeholders.  All members of the community are invited to attend the evening session on June 3, from 7:30-9:00 pm in the high school library.

After meeting with staff, students, families and community groups, we plan to conduct a final, "round table" discussion with reps from each of these groups.  The goal of the roundtable is to discuss possible "next steps" and check for understanding before Dr. Ray-Taylor leaves and drafts recommendations for us.  Our ultimate goal is to have an action plan that we can begin implementing as soon as possible.
