Teaching Racial Justice

Everyone deserves to feel safe, loved, and valued and at LeafSpring Schools we model that to teach every child who comes through our doors about empathy and equity. Too often, people of color do not receive this treatment. We are more than just the color of our skin. Children will only learn this if we teach them through our actions and through intentional learning opportunities and conversations.  Here are some resources to help get you started.
