1:39: Mother expresses disappointment that the equity strategy ed meeting took place without mention of special needs or disabilities being included in the district’s equity. She is frustrated that parents are not feeling heard in IEP meetings.
She also points out that there has been discussion of the D158 RAD (Recognizing American Diversity) program being made mandatory to students to the point that they would be tested on the content. She reminds the board that during April, the RAD calendar featured an image of BSDM costumes and a link to information about the lifestyle as part of its Pride Month content, which many felt was inappropriate for students.
