Upcoming Events
Campbell Hall Anti-bias Curriculum Redesign Lab
JULY 31 – AUGUST 4
The Campbell Hall Anti-Bias Curriculum Redesign Lab is for educators interested in developing an anti-bias curriculum.
On April 12, Campbell Hall hosted Identity Safe Classroom training for secondary faculty, providing a framework in which teachers help ensure students that their social identities are an asset rather than a barrier to success in the classroom. This contributes to a learning environment in which all students feel welcomed, supported, and valued.
As part of the CH DEIJ Training series for parents, Speak up at School: How to Respond to Everyday Prejudice, Bias, and Stereotypes was presented via Zoom on April 11. It was a practical and scenario-based training that provided participants the opportunity to learn and practice four distinct strategies on how we can respond to bias at school.
On March 22, renowned civil rights leader and best-selling author Valarie Kaur met with the CH community reading group Thinking Deeply to discuss her book SEE NO STRANGER, in which she advocates for reclaiming love as a force for justice.
On March 20, CH Persian families created a beautiful display celebrating Nowruz/Nouruz. Each of the items displayed on a haftsin table symbolize a particular meaning (coins for prosperity, sprouts for rebirth, apple for health and beauty, garlic for good health, sumac for the color of sunrise, vinegar for age and patience, dried fruit for love, hyacinth for spring, mirror reflecting into the future, goldfish for life, painted eggs for fertility).
On March 11, more than 40 representatives from 12 schools gathered at Campbell Hall where, in partnership with the Center for the Study of Latino Health and Culture (CESLAC) at UCLA Health and Somos PSV, a full-day symposium focusing on the future of the Latinx community across economics, health, diversity, and more was shared.
