DEIJ in Action in the Classroom
It was not long after the Chatsworth Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice (DEIJ) committee convened their first meeting of the school year that students implemented DEIJ focussed activities in their classrooms. At the meeting, the DEIJ committee discussed topics that included assisting staff with strategies to help students showcase their learning and enable students to make connections to their culture and ancestry.
