Next edition of Henrico Schools’ ‘Community Conversations’ will focus on parent perspectives

Henrico County Public Schools’ “Community Conversations” series will continue Tuesday, July 7 at 6 p.m., as an online panel of parents discusses various experiences and perspectives. The conversations are part of HCPS’ Family Learning Series workshops.

The panel of parents will respond to comments and perspectives of other parents in the school division. They also will speak about their own experiences with HCPS and their commitment to positive change in their school communities.

The virtual discussion series originated in response to global protests sparked by the May 25 death of George Floyd in Minnesota. To date, the every-other-week discussions have featured a panel of Henrico school leaders and a panel of HCPS students. Two more discussions are planned after this edition, with the last set for Aug. 3. Adrienne Cole Johnson, director of the school division’s Department of Family and Community Engagement, moderates the discussions.

For details and information about how to join the discussion using Google Meet, visit https://henricoschools.us/family-learning-series/. No registration is required. Only the first 250 virtual attendees will be able to participate and comment during the discussion. If the audience is larger than 250, those participants will be able to see and hear the discussion using a livestream link that will appear on the Family Learning Series page. The session will also be recorded and posted online for additional viewing.
