We all deserve schools that welcome us.
A critical function
of society is to educate our youth, and a great deal of opportunity
is lost if we don’t.
Yet too often schools treat students
in ways that dismiss their promise, marginalize their presence,
and discourage learning.
In environments like these, schools
not only fail to protect students from bias and harassment; they push
out youth who are most vulnerable.
That’s why the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern
California launched Schools
for All: Preventing Bias and Pushout,
a public education and advocacy campaign to ensure that every
child attends a welcoming school.

"Schools have a tremendous incentive to push
out the children who are not doing well."
