The recent Seattle Public Schools (SPS) School Board election results have left our community grappling with questions about representation, equity, and the future of our school district. With all of the Black board directors stepping down, new leadership taking over, and an ongoing budget crisis, the future of high-quality education, particularly for Black and Indigenous children, in our district is uncertain. The changes are significant, and the implications are vast — not just for the board itself, but also for the Black families who rely on these institutions to provide their children with an equitable education.
