Practicing antiracist collegiality (parc)
PARC is a community of NNHS educators who work together to bravely examine our teaching practices and our relationships with other educators through the lens of antiracism. The group aims to:
examine the implicit biases and the racist practices that exist in our own beliefs, language, and teaching practices
disrupt racist practices when we detect them in a manner that preserves the dignity of all people, inspires introspection, supports personal growth, and results in systemic change of our school culture
