A school district in North Carolina spent more than $3,000 on two hours of training in “implicit bias” for its school board members last year, according to documents obtained by Parents Defending Education through a public records request and shared with The Daily Signal.
The Wake County Public School System gave $3,038 for the training to the organization “WE ARE,” which stands for Working to Extend Anti-Racist Education, according to a contract dated Nov. 14, 2023.
Goals for the training were for participating board members to “recognize and challenge their own biases,” “move beyond individual bigotry and bias to a structural and institutional analysis of racism,” and “make historical connections between education & systemic racism.”
Of the total, $2,500 went toward the “two-hour training workshop on implicit bias for the Board of Education.” Another $500 went to two hours of “preparation/planning time,” and $38 was for a “travel fee for one hour.”
Four out of the nine school board members who received the “anti-racism” training appear to be minorities.
WE ARE, the group the Wake County school district paid for the training, also offers $300 summer camps for first through fifth graders, professional development for educators, and workshops for parents and families.
“At WE ARE, we’re committed to dismantling systemic racism in education by collaborating with children, families, and educators to create anti-racist, culturally affirming learning spaces,” the group’s Facebook fundraising page says.
