Wallingford Swarthmore district studies black students needs
The Wallingford Swarthmore School District moves to improve the black experience at Strath Haven High where minority students fare worse and show less motivation. Chairman Carter Gilmer reported on a minority issues committee's work and a consultant survey with recommendations to hire more black teachers and counselors, revise Level 2 and 3 course content, and pace materials to fit student needs. A five step plan calls for multicultural planning teams, faculty training, and partnership with parents, plus programs to aid at risk students starting in early grades. The board responds that goals are being incorporated and each school will form committees to develop district objectives.
