Equity Commitment
Equity is central to how our district lives out its mission of excellence for each and every student. We all play a role in achieving equity.
What to know
- Our district's equity commitment was approved by our School Board on April 12, 2021.
- Along with our strategic roadmap, it guides the work we do and how we do it.
Our commitment
Systemic racism and many inequities exist in our society. This is not a reflection of who we aspire to be in our district. It is essential that we address this to fulfill our mission for each and every student.
Therefore, we commit to:
- Evaluate and expand our mindsets.
- Embrace productive discomfort.
- Transform our core values from words to policies and actions.
Core values
We will facilitate the efforts of staff, students and families to act on our six core values.
Honoring each person's identity
We will find ways to honor each person's unique mix of overlapping identities. This includes but is not limited to the following.
- Age
- Beliefs/religion
- Class
- Disability/special needs
- Ethnicity
- Family Status
- Gender
- Gender expression/identity
- Height and weight
- Home language
- Immigration status
- Issues specific to women and girls
- Mental Health
- National origin
- Poverty
