    Climate Justice

    6th Grade Math/Science


    "It was joyful," says Wil Page, reflecting on his journey as a 6th-grade science teacher with 16 years of experience. Growing up in Los Angeles, he navigated the complexities of being the only biracial child in his class. Inspired by his unapologetically Black kindergarten teacher and his parents' involvement in education, he became an activist educator. As a career changer, Page entered education through an alternative teacher training program.


    "Take your mental health days," advises Page, who believes in the importance of self-care for educators. As an active member of United Teachers Los Angeles, he’s proud of the Black Student Achievement Plan and the exposure to HBCUs. He had the opportunity to create a Climate Justice class to inspire his students to become climate activists. He speaks on the power of a strong mentor community, the Black men that inspired him, and how he’s empowering his students to lead the next movement.
