Wichita High School West: Multicultural Education Plan 1991-92.
Wichita Public Schools, KS.
This document is the Wichita (Kansas) High School West multicultural education plan for 1991-92. Wichita High School West is part of the Wichita Public School system. The plan was developed by a committee of 1 administrator and 12 teachers. The plan opens with definitions of the mission of the plan and the meaning of multicultural education for the purposes of the plan. Five areas of emphasis are offered: (1) administrative and counseling efforts; (2) teaching faculty and curriculum efforts; (3) clubs and extracurricular activity efforts; (4) schoolwide efforts; and (5) inservice efforts. The bulk of the document presents descriptions of activities planned for each of the above areas. The teaching and curriculum section offers plans for each academic area. The schoolwide efforts area sets out a year long "Culture of the Month" program beginning with a September emphasis on human relations and interactions and followed each month by programs highlighting particular cultures. Attached is the agenda for an inservice workshop. Also appended is a selection of ideas for celebrating German culture and heritage planned for October in the first year of implementing the plan. Included are 14 resources, with addresses and telephone numbers provided. (JB)
