Inaayah Khan, rising senior at @TJHSST_Official, felt compelled to become an activist at the age of 13/14 because "no one else was fighting for them." This is heartbreaking. #FCPSEquityReimagined
Students are bound to face opposing viewpoints outside the classroom. Thus, these topics aren't controversial, they are relevant. - Shanthi Ashok🎤 @FCPSSEALs#FCPSEquityReimagined
“Get to know the students, not just as students but as people.”
How are we leading to prioritize humans before content?

Ethan B, senior at @langleyhs, suggests that it's important to have annual mental health checkups, just like we have annual physical health checkups. Makes sense! (And this is why we need to listen to our students.😊) #FCPSEquityReimagined
“Equity is a verb. When you see something, you do something.”
Let’s take every opportunity to help our student ls reach their hopes & dreams.

Ær Queen shared that as a teacher, they were told it was inappropriate to "talk about their sex life" by sharing that they are queer. And yet, the school hosted baby showers and wedding showers for cisgender hetero staff members throughout the year... 🤔 #FCPSEquityReimagined
Dr. Michelle Reid:
- It’s equity not ‘check-quity’
- We have to be comfortable failing as we try new programs and establish new ways of thinking
- We cannot let striving for perfection get in the way of progress 🙌🏻

We aren't a melting pot, we aren't a tossed salad. It's not about assimilating, it's about being who we are. We are each a thread in a beautiful tapestry. - Marcia St. John-Cunning #FCPSEquityReimagined
Time to disrupt the system, time for good trouble. Our children are not the problem. Time to embrace vulnerability & not let perfectionism hold us back. Time to stop labeling & sorting…to give everyone the chance to be their authentic selves. @FCPSEquity#FCPSEquityReimagined
Powerful paraphrases from Lucia Patino-Iporre, @FallsChurchHS S and @FCPSSEALs. We can't prejudge students based on race, language, gender, sexual orientation - ensure options are available to all, and invite Ss to let us know what they need. #FCPSEquityReimagined
