The provided documents were acquired via a data request for the Professional Learning Community (PLC) forms utilized by Mankato Area Public Schools during the 2023-24 academic year.

A Professional Learning Community (PLC) is an approach used in educational settings where teachers collaborate to enhance their teaching skills and the academic performance of students. In a PLC, educators work together, sharing expertise and experiences, to analyze and improve their teaching practices. PLCs often involve regular meetings where educators can discuss strategies, analyze student data, and share resources. The ultimate goal of a PLC is to improve student learning outcomes by fostering a culture of continuous professional development among teachers.

The form above references a “List of Black and Brown Students.” It’s important to clarify that to my knowledge teachers are not categorizing students based on their own perceptions of skin color. Instead, the categorization is derived from how parents identify their children’s ethnicity—such as Asian, Caucasian, Black, Hispanic, etc.—on school enrollment documents.
