Given the tragic and racially charged recent events, many families are struggling with their own emotions, hopes they have for their children, grandchildren, and the unrest in our communities and nation. If you are struggling with how to talk with your loved ones about the tragic events in the news, you are not alone. We can turn these unprecedented times into learning moments to teach our children about kindness, respect for others, valuing diversity, understanding racial bias, resilience and hope! Everyone one of us in the Brown Deer community can play a role in creating real change that is sustainable.
We have created a page of Resources for families and our Brown Deer Community to support you in talking with your family and children. You can find those resources via the link on the left side of this page. Some resources focus on how to help your child express themselves and process sad, scary events. Other resources focus on how to talk with your children about discrimination and racism.
If you need additional support the following district staff are available to assist you.
