Safer SPPS / Engage! Community conversation and dinner series

St Paul Public Schools

A series of 3 events held in March April and May of 2023 comprising approximately 257 community members.

While originally planned as part of a series centered on the most recent strategic plan for the district, SPPS Achieves, the discussion content for the first event associated with this project (on March 30, 2023) was redesigned with a focus on school safety and security in response to a violent incident at Harding Senior High School in Saint Paul. This pivot created space for community members to process, reflect and respond to the incident, while providing broad ranging feedback on school safety in general.
