With the US elections less than a month away, we invite you to a Community Conversation around Communicating Across Political Differences at Work and Home on October 17, 2024 at noon.
Political differences can create tension in our relationships both at work and home. Let’s come together to discuss how we can navigate these tensions constructively and in ways that align with our values.
This is a time for conversation – to share feelings, raise concerns, and talk together as a school community. To aid the conversation, space will be limited. (We know it's coming up soon, so if you miss it, don't fear! If there is a lot of interest in this topic, we can hold another session soon.)
About the format. With these smaller Community Conversations, our hope is to explore restorative dialogue and build community, creating a space where we are all teachers and learners. We will draw heavily on practices from intergroup dialogue and restorative justice.
