Anti-Racist Resolution

We commit to prolonged engagement in anti-racist work. We will continue to listen, learn, and inform ourselves about ways in which structural racism and implicit biases affect our school community, families, and students. We will center BIPOC voices at Sealth. We will routinely evaluate how our words, actions, fundraising, funding, and other ways we support our school stay true to these values and mission.

We will continue to explore the role of our PTSA in dismantling systemic racism and commit to taking concrete actions to do so. The PTSA will continue to review all policies and procedures, including stating this position on our enrollment form, prioritizing engaging with anti-racist vendors, and supporting our school administration and teachers as they implement school-wide anti-racism lessons, teacher trainings, or other events that engage students and community members in meaningful discussions and actions that address this mission.
