Planting SEEDS for Social Justice

The National SEED (Seeking Educational Equity and Diversity) Project is based on the implementation of monthly peer-facilitated seminars to help teachers, families, administrators, counselors and other members of the school community engage in structured conversations about equity and diversity. This grant provides funding for MHS teacher Sarah Silverman to attend the SEED New Leaders Week during Summer 2020 and then to implement the SEED program in Mamaroneck during the 2020-21 school year. The goal will be to engage participants in exploring our community’s diversity critically to understand privileges and disadvantages, with the goal of creating more inclusive, welcoming spaces for our diverse students and staff.

Grantees: Sarah Silverman, Annie Ward
