culty about the casual use of hurtful language. Our focus was NOT on the cu=
lture outside of our school (facebook, television, movies, etc.) BUT INSTEA=
D on what we value and care about within the confines of our campus and sch=
ool buildings. In 20 years of school leadership, I cannot recall a more poi=
gnant and moving conversation with students and teachers. I am now starting=
work with faculty and students on next steps. Here are my questions:

Please limit responses to what happens in your=A0school community with day =
