Whether the top ic is school budgets\, village identity\, or parking policy\, our public d iscussions can sometimes become more combative than constructive. \nWe bel ieve there’s a better way for us to work together. Please join us for a constructive dialogue with neighbors interested in exploring the following topic: \nPersonal and community investment in education \nThis dialogue b rings together community members with different points of view on how Newt on invests in the education of young people. The purpose is for folks to s peak to be understood\, to listen to understand\, and to deepen curiosity about perspectives (of your own and others) — on a concrete issue that a ffects us all. \nWhat is Newton Conversations?\nWe are a group of Newton r esidents\, City staff\, and elected officials who came together around a s hared vision: Newton Conversations envision a city where civil discourse t hrives\, and diverse perspectives are respected with open minds and though tful engagement. \nTogether\, we’ll co-create a space for reflection\, h onesty\, and mutual respect. Our hope is that you walk away with the sense that respectful conversation is still possible — and essential — in N ewton.
