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.

 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

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?

Positive Critical Moments as a High School Student

                                                     19
A Helpful Critical
Moment
 I beganastoa High

   about a very
different history in
         th
  the 11 grade.

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

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.

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.

  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

How do we define Equity and
   Inclusion in our district?

Inclusion:
• Student and employees feel welcome,
  seen, respected, understood, cared
  for, and safe
Equity:
• Educational Disparities based on race,
  economics and other dimensions of
  diversity are reduced and eliminated.
• Positive school outcomes are distributed
  equitably across all demographics and
  identity groups.
• Negative outcomes are reduced for all
  groups.
