Announcement Message
WHAT?
San Francisco Unified School District over-identifies Black/African American children as needing Special Education Services under the designations of:
- OHI (Other Health Impairment) and
- ED (Emotional Disturbance).
In addition, Black/African American children:
- have lower attendance rates,
- lower literacy scores, and
- are disciplined more often than their peers.
SO WHAT?
We cannot let this happen on our watch.
As someone who cares about academic outcomes for Black/African American children, we need you to share your opinion and expertise.
