Memberships & Consultants Shaping The "Strategic Plan"

According to BOE Budget, DPS pays for these memberships and uses their services:

CT Center for School Change (CCSC) $6,500

https://ctschoolchange.org/services/social-justice-equity/

Excerpts from CCSC "Core Beliefs" America is a racist and classist society and, by default, schools replicate the racism and classism that has deep roots bound into our national history, culture, systems, and structures. Inequities based on racism and classism are baked into our educational system and must be dismantled at a personal, institutional, and systemic level – it is the system that causes the inequities, not the student.

Note CSCC changed the wording of this section on its website some time between Aug 2020 and Oct 2020, which coincides with when Darien parents asked questions (deletions in yellow, additions in blue).
