| Black and Orange Day | http://bre.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/234 | Black and Orange Day | <p><span style="font-size:13px;">Friday, October 29th is Black and Orange Day. Students are also permitted to wear costumes; however, <span style="color:#333333;background-color:#ffffff;">depending upon the choice of costume we choose to wear it also runs the risk of being offensive to other cultures. Halloween is the opportunity to discuss costume choices with your child and students. It is important not to inadvertently mimic culture by culturally appropriating racial, religious or ethnic groups. Some critical equity questions to ask about your costume are 'Am I reinforcing stereotypes with the image I am portraying?' and 'Is my costume a form of exploitation of another culture?'</span><br></span></p> | | | |
