Grades 10–12. Term II, ½ Credit. Offered through the Office of Equity and Community
This Social Justice Course will take an interdisciplinary approach and use various texts and Social Justice Standards including Identity, Diversity, Justice, and Action to ground our exploration of injustice in our world. The class will cover the likes of Critical Race Theory, economic systems, Environmental Justice, inequities in Education and Health, bias in the Media, and more. Students will have the opportunity to express their learning in a variety of ways throughout the class through writing, presentations, projects (visual, performance, media-based, etc.). For certain assessments, students will be given a choice in how they share what they have learned. Students will analyze and gain knowledge and insight into theory, systems, issues, and topics around justice and change to imagine a different and better society for all.
