The plan emphasizes the need for responsive practices tailored to the unique needs of Black students with disabilities with emphasis on systematic accountability driven by a continuous improvement model to combat the historic racism within the American public school system. During the Board鈥檚 discussion of this item, Board President Lavinia Grace Phillips referred to racism as 鈥�the elephant in the room.鈥� Through collaboration between the District, community members, and educational partners, the BPSB Action Plan aims to provide a more equitable, fair, and inclusive education for all Black students, particularly those with disabilities.
