District Equity Themes
What is a Monthly Equity Theme?
Equity monthly theme serves as broad guidance and support for the equity work in our district. The themes help highlight some of the many intersectionalities and priorities of equity work that are needed on an ongoing basis to help collaboration and growth in our system. The goal of the themes is to grow and co-create/co-design events that highlight the theme geared towards families, students, staff, and community.
Planning Committee overview:
For the 2023-2024 school year we are planning a monthly celebration for each theme.
