CRI Expo 2023

Greetings SPPS Staff,

Thank you for taking the time to attend the second annual Culturally Responsive Instruction (CRI) Expo. In a school year with many successes and challenges, I am thankful for the opportunity to come together and learn from each other to create more inclusive and engaging learning environments for our students.

Culturally Responsive Instruction continues to be a district priority through our strategic plan objective of creating inclusive school and district cultures and our long-term student outcome to decrease disparities based on race, ethnicity, culture and identity. I am proud to see our actions matching our words as you integrate CRI strategies into your classrooms and create spaces like this to share best practices.

As a district, our vision for every student is that they feel represented in the classroom and encouraged to make connections between what they are learning and their lived experiences. As educators, we must understand, value and embrace the unique differences in the cultures and backgrounds of our students as an asset to their education, not a hindrance.

We all share this opportunity to make equity, inclusion, culturally responsive instruction and diversity key pieces of our community. Thank you for helping make SPPS a place where all students are celebrated and can be proud of who they are and where they come from.

In partnership,
 
Joe Gothard, Superintendent
