Accepts free arts visits, museum trips and teacher workshops from the Museum of the African Diaspora

It will also offer free workshops for participating teachers. There is no cost to the district, and the agreement runs from February 1, 2024 to May 29, 2026. This is a ratification, so the agreement began before the Board's vote.
