Erasing The Red Lines

American Public Square

Erasing the red lines: Are our schools embracing the future or embodying our past?

Many community members believe no area is more urgently in need of change than education. The socio-economic impact and varied access to resources directly affects students based on the demographics of their student bodies. As we move forward, we are challenged with how to make long-lasting change and whether education is indeed a pathway to a more equal and equitable society.

Join American Public Square at Jewell and its Student Ambassadors for a conversation about education reform. Our panel will discuss whether our schools are designed to prepare students for success in the 21st Century, and highlight what role diversity plays in students’ vision of the ideal school.

APS is especially excited to present this program, which is produced and supported by students participating in the 2021-22 Civics Education Initiative
