The Justice Project Summit

Dan Lawler and I participated in a presentation/panel discussion called, "Inclusive Schools and Education Equity" in which the following questions were posed:

  1. What does it mean to be a welcoming school district within the constraints of segregated housing patterns? 
  2. What can suburban residents do to effect change in a metropolitan system that sanctions separate and unequal educational opportunities? 
  3. Does diversity in schools create a net gain for all?
GUEST PANELISTS:
  • Dan Lawler and Spiro Bolos, New Trier's Metropolitan Community Project
  • Steve Bogira, The Chicago Reader
  • Kourtney Cockrell, Student Enrichment Services at Northwestern University
