[LWVNM Action] Draft Yazzie-Martinez plan

[Meredith Machen]

There are extensive sections in the plan about these important, historical gaps. Let’s discuss what else you think the plan should address in some detail with the Education Committee and exactly what we recommend. The new Social Studies standards will help a lot. Thanks , Eliza.

The plan aligns perfectly with our updated Education position and is extremely ambitious in terms of its academic performance goals and its commitment to remedying and rectifying the insufficient support of the 4 groups identified in the Yazzie- Martinez court orders. There are quite a few important non- monetary commitments as well as monetary ones.
