What if there was a middle school where students were asked to care about how their mind works? Where students were asked to wonder out loud. Imagine a place where kids are excited to learn. What if this place allowed students to struggle and helped them view perseverance through struggle as an opportunity for growth?

Safety Plan

The California Constitution guarantees California children the right to attend public schools that are safe, secure, and peaceful. To this end, California Assembly Bill 1747 requires school to develop and annually update a Comprehensive School Safety Plan (CSSP).
 
 
 
Besides being prepared in the event of an emergency, perhaps the most effective means to keep our campus safe is to recognize and address potential threats or issues before they arise. All students, staff, and parents are encouraged to share any suspicious activity with IVA leaders, no matter how small. If you see something, please say something. If you'd like to report something anonymously, you can do so using the STOPit Anonymous Reporting System.

Module 1: How did we get here?

Our First Module asks: "How did we get here?"

The first module will focus on a small overview of the history of racism and systemic oppression, an understanding of white privilege, and an introduction to why the Black Lives Matters Movement matters. 

These are questions that IVA Faculty & Staff will be thinking about as we explore the material (You can adjust the questions so they are more applicable for your learning):

  •  What does this have to do with us as educators? (Why am I here? How can I help shape and change my community and society?)
  • What are examples of bias or privilege that you might recognize from your own experience or daily life? (How does this affect or relate to me? How could it affect or relate to my students, families, or community members?)
