Wheaton League of Women Voters begins Local Civic Engagement series

The League of Women Voters of Wheaton is beginning a Local Civic Engagement series this year that will meet on the third Thursday of the month.

The first program on "Know the Difference Between Critical Race Theory and Culturally Responsive Teaching" will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 20, on Zoom. It's a follow-up to the Jan. 13 Civic Awareness program, "Critical Race Theory: What It Is and What It's Not."

In this program, a panel of local educators will discuss why culturally responsive teaching is important, how it applies to the classroom and the confusion regarding Culturally Responsive Teaching and Critical Race Theory.

There will be a question-and-answer period at the end of the presentation.

A Zoom link will be sent 24 hours before the event.

The league serves the communities of Warrenville, West Chicago, Winfield, Wheaton and Carol Stream.
