Join us for #DSCWoA2024! Oct19-27TH! Join #students #parents #teachers and #organizers across the #US for our 15th National Week of Action Against School Pushout. Find an event or action near you at National Week of Action – Dignity in Schools

Many factors fuel school pushout AKA #SchoolToPrisonPipeline: policies & practices that push children out of classrooms and into cells. We MUST organize to dismantle this system & invest in education, not incarceration! #PublicED4PublicGood #DSCWoA2024

This is the brutal reality: school pushout still TARGETS Black, Brown & disabled students, robbing them of clear pathways to their futures. This isn't by accident—it's systemic racism in action. It's time to call it what it is and END IT! ⚠️✊🏾 #WakeUp! #DSCWoA2024

#WakeUp! Tools like restorative justice aren’t soft—they’re powerful. It breaks the cycle of harm by giving students the tools to resolve conflict, rebuild trust & strengthen communities. THIS is the future of healthy and strong communities . 💪🕊️ PublicED4PublicGood #DSCWoA2024

Parents are the backbone of their child's success. When they’re involved, schools CAN’T fail! It’s time to demand that schools listen and work WITH families to ensure every child gets the best education. #PublicEd4PublicGood #DSCWoA2024

Schools that embrace cultural diversity empower students to challenge stereotypes, fight injustice & build solidarity & awareness across differences. This is how we raise a generation that is educated & ready to dismantle inequality! #Wakeup! #DSCWoA2024

This Week of Action, thinking on 70 years of Brown v. Board of Education, we must also recognize the ongoing fight against inequities like those faced by Darryl George. His experience reminds us that our education system still has a long way to go. #BrownvBoard #DSCWoA2024
