CSIHS PTSA commits 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 training, or other events that engage students and community members in meaningful discussions and actions that address this mission.
To inform our decisions, we will review resources, including statements by SPS leadership, the district and school board, national and state PTSAs, and other respected sources. We strive to remove all forms of racism--structural, institutional, and individual--at Sealth. This work will be ongoing.
The Chief Sealth International High School PTSA would like to acknowledge that we are on the traditional land of the first people of Seattle, the Duwamish People past and present, and honor with gratitude the land itself and the Duwamish Tribe. A people who are still here, continuing to honor and bring their ancient heritage to light.
