Hillsborough County School District Task force member Dipa Shah on fixing the school to prison pipeline

Share

Brandon based attorney Dipa Shah was an unsuccessful candidate for the Hillsborough County School Board last fall, but she’s making a contribution now, as a member of a task force that is mandated with looking at ways at amending school policies when it comes to disciplining black and brown youth in the school district.

Shah also discussed her view on former superintendent MaryEllen Elia, and what it was like running for office for the first time last year.
