About

Protect Colls Schools is a group of concerned Collingswood citizens who advocate for student support, transparency and equity from the Collingswood School District. Our group is comprised of current and former parents from across the district, educators, DEI professionals, and concerned community members throughout the borough.  

We believe in:

• District leadership that puts fiscal responsibility, transparency, and equity at the forefront.

• District-supported DEI work that is intentional, evidence based and includes the many diverse voices including those of differing races, languages, socioeconomic status, disability status, special education needs and more. 

• Identifying and removing barriers that disadvantage marginalized community members while building supports to increase accessibility for the most vulnerable.

• Further investing in our schools and buildings rather than proposing divestment of resources from West Collingswood. 

• Integrating our elementary schools in a collaborative manner 

• Community engagement that ensures initiatives are happening with those who are most impacted by change rather than the current proposal that is happening to our community.

We believe that our students deserve investment in their community rather than divestment.
