At our Community Conversation back in November, there were topics on the agenda that we did not get to cover, namely books in the high school library that are being challenged and our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion action planning. Come with your questions for a back-and-forth exchange among community, Board of Education, and administration.
The Board of Education will host a conversation on Tuesday, November 15 at 12 noon at the Westport Library. Long-time, former RTM moderator and Westport educator, Velma Heller, will moderate a back-and-forth dialogue among the public, Board members, and Superintendent Tom Scarice.
