Statement of Solidarity with the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Community

Date Released: 

In light of the dramatic rise in anti-Asian violence within the past year, the D.C. State Board of Education unequivocally expresses its solidarity with the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community and condemns all manifestations of violence, racism, misogyny, and xenophobia against the AAPI community.

Statement on Local and National Response to Killings of Black Americans

Date Released: 

We are deeply saddened and sickened by the killing of George Floyd and the unacceptable loss of numerous other Black men and women across the country that we have lost to the evils of institutional racism and police violence. 

The State Board stands with those who seek equal justice under the law. Our history has shown that protest and civil unrest are the language of the oppressed. We must listen and come together to fundamentally change the rules and systems that make this type of injustice an all-too frequent and too-often tolerated occurrence in our communities.
