Abstract
Systemic institutionalized racism in the school system is manifested by teachers’ biases due to unconscious or conscious white supremist beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours which has impacted academic achievement of African Canadian (AC) learners in preschool, elementary, and secondary school. AC learners struggle at a disproportionate rate with the consequences of zero tolerance policies in the school system leading to practices of exclusionary discipline, also known as detention, suspension, or disciplinary alternative education placements which normalize prison. This is a precursor to the criminal justice system that leads to incarceration which is referred to as the School to Prison Pipeline (STPP). A two-day anti-black racism workshop will address unconscious teacher bias in a safe space and help them build skills of cultural competency, cultural humility, and culturally responsive teaching. This program is supported by evidence-based literature, and the theoretical frameworks of Critical Race Theory, the Stages of Change Model and the Canadian Model of Occupational Performance and Engagement. Various teaching methods will be used to engage the participant to reflect on their bias and an evaluation, funding, and dissemination plans are described.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
