First Virtual Advisory Group Meeting

Jun 5, 2020

On May 29, 2020, our first virtual Advisory Group meeting was held with over 60 participants, including Representative Gibson and Representative Sanchez.  The purpose of this meeting was to update Advisory Group members on Committee work completed since March.  The overwhelming response was extremely positive with comments such as “with this curriculum we have an opportunity to radically reimagine how our history is told” and “the content of this course is needed to heal our nation”.  The commitment and contributions of Committee members during this difficult time was honored and recognized.  Meeting artifacts can be found here:
