These are some really incredible additions to standardized learning and I am absolutely thrilled as an alum of HCPS to see social and ethical lessons being introduced into the curriculum. I’ve cited a few of my personal favorites below.

S:oA2: 7-8a, I can recognize and describe unfairness and injustice in many forms including attitudes, speech, behaviors, policies, practices, and laws.

SoA2: 7-8b, I can explain the difference between conscious bias and unconscious (implicit) bias.

SoA1: 11-12a, I can relate to and build connections with other people by showing them empathy, compassion, and understanding by highlighting and honoring differing perspectives, backgrounds, cultures or social groups.

SoA2: 9-10a, I can recognize that all people (including myself) have certain advantages and disadvantages in society based on who they are and where they were born.

DeM2: 11-12a, I can evaluate my post-secondary goals based on my own personal identity, ethical standards, and as a global citizen.
