Vision All students prepared for post-secondary pathways, careers, and civic engagement. Mission Transform K–12 education to a system that is centered on closing opportunity gaps and is characterized by high expectations for all students and educators. We achieve this by developing equity- based policies and supports that empower educators, families, and communities. Values • • Ensuring Equity Collaboration and Service • Achieving Excellence through Continuous Improvement • Focus on the Whole Child
Equity Statement Each student, family, and community possesses strengths and cultural knowledge that benefits their peers, educators, and schools. Ensuring educational equity: • Goes beyond equality; it requires education leaders to examine the ways current policies and practices result in disparate outcomes for our students of color, students living in poverty, students receiving special education and English Learner services, students who identify as LGBTQ+, and highly mobile student populations. • Requires education leaders to develop an understanding of historical contexts; engage students, families, and community representatives as partners in decision-making; and actively dismantle systemic barriers, replacing them with policies and practices that ensure all students have access to the instruction and support they need to succeed in our schools.

Alicia Garza Put yourself in the story and ask yourself questions that lead to critical reflection and a deeper level of awareness. 14
I was Born in 1971 15
In 1973 Black and Brown kids who looked like me were suspended 2 times more than their white peers. U.S. Department of Education, 2018; Children’s Defense Fund, 1975 10/13/2021 | 16
Conditions in Which I Learned Many of my teachers were white. Text books were filled with white history or white culture. I was encouraged not to pursue college Detroit Michigan 10/13/2021 | 17
Questions Along this Journey • Why don't prominent historical figures look like me? • Did only a few people who look like me make important contributions to society? • What is wrong with Black people? • What is wrong with me? • I want to become a doctor. Will I be able to go to college? • Will I graduate from high school? • Will I be a successful adult? 18
Positive Critical Moments as a High School Student 19
A Helpful Critical Moment I beganastoa High hear School Student about a very different history in th the 11 grade. 20
A Critical Moment as an Undergrad Student •Majoring in history opened my eyes to truths I did not know. •I was empowered as I learned more about systems of oppression. •Majoring in history had aFirstmajor impact on my black Senator and Representatives: Sen. Hiram Revels (R-MS) teaching. Rep. Benjamin S. Turner (R-AL) Robert DeLarge (R-SC) Josiah Walls (R-FL) Jefferson Long (R-GA) Joseph Rainey and Robert B. Elliott (R-SC) 10/13/2021 | 21
Shifts in Questions Along this Journey How can I ensure that students of all backgrounds see current and historical figures that look like them? How can I facilitate student learning that cultivate critical consciousness? How can I infuse multicultural literature across content areas? How can I help people interrogate their conceptions of Black people? What's wrong with people and their thinking? How did they get there? 10/13/2021 | 22
As a Classroom Teacher in the Late 1990’s I observed Black students being: • Sent to the Office • Suspended • Labeled • Sent to Hallway 10/13/2021 | 23
In 1995 I became a new mom. Although, I was educated, achieved middle class status, and my son had both parents in the home. However, he faced a similar reality to mine at birth 10/13/2021 | 24
In 2006 • Black and brown students, who looked like my son were suspended 3 times more than their white peers. • 25 years of systemic discipline inequities U.S. Department of Education, 2018; Children’s Defense Fund, 1975 10/13/2021 | 25
Today African American students are nearly 4 times more 40 Years of Inequitable likely to be suspended Discipline Practices than white peers. U.S. Department of Education, 2018; Children’s Defense Fund, 1975 |10/13/2021 | 26
Shifts in My Questions In my current roles and multiple hats, I now ask myself: How do I continue to interrogate my own biases and assumptions? How can I help teachers and administrators understand issues of bias and systems of oppression? How can I ensure that all students have access to equitable educational opportunities? How can I help educators and school communities interrogate their conceptions of Black people and others from non-dominant cultures? 10/13/2021 | 27
Educational Equity Occurs when educational policies, practices, interactions, and resources are representative of, constructed by, and responsive to all people so that each individual, has access to meaningfully participates in, and has positive outcomes from high-quality learning experiences, regardless of individual characteristics and group memberships. 10/13/2021 | 28
Examining Discipline Outcome Data Is Not The Same As Centering Equity In Behavior Systems •What is it about our people, Disproportionality practices, and policies Systems contributing to the People inequities we are seeing? •Who is benefitting from the way things are and who is Policies Practices not?

Harmful Discipline Practices & Conditions Students of Color Disproportionately Experience Scripting & Major out of Scapegoating Labeling Minors Falsely Punitive Silencing Accusing Consequences Riddle 2014 10/13/2021 | 31
What Students Had to Say About These Harmful Practices • Scripting & Labeling: Students shared feeling angry, sad, frustrated, unliked, and as if they could do nothing right. • Scapegoating: Students felt silenced, angry, frustrated, unliked, hopeless, misunderstood, treated unfairly, and beside themselves with disbelief • Majors out of Minors: Students shared feeling picked on, singled out, frustrated, unliked, and disconnected
