Anti-Racism Engagement – Information for Families 
Dear Families,
We are writing to you about two upcoming information evenings and a survey you will receive later this month. As the District continues its journey to support an equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment for all, we will be reaching out to students, their families, staff and community partners to participate in an Anti-Racism, Equity and Inclusion Survey.
We want to alert you about an upcoming opportunity to learn more about the District’s anti-racism work and survey. There are two virtual information evenings for families:
- For Indigenous Parents and Guardians – Information Evening: Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion Survey via Zoom on Tuesday May 11, 7-9pm. Click the link to register to attend: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Jcz4OLN3StOlABH2hPB-ug
- For All Parents and Guardians – Information Evening: Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion Survey via Zoom on Tuesday May 18, 7-9pm. Click the link to register to attend: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_s2bYyeayRsy_kbpdHwOKdA
Students in Grades 6-12 will also have an opportunity to discuss anti-racism work in-class and complete the survey.
Information about why we need your input, how the survey came about, how the information will be used, and what comes next can be found in the attached document.
A direct link to complete the survey will be sent later this month. Racism is a serious problem that cannot be solved with one survey. This is the start of a journey that the Burnaby School District embarks on with sincerity, humility and hope.
