Digging into equity and disproportionality work with the D19 Equity Team, Dr. Eddie Fergus and the Office of Equity Access Members.
District 19 Equity Team learning with and from other district teams. #AdvanceEquityNow
District 19 incubator schools serve as a model. They are working on deepening the work they started in the 18-19 school year on disproportionality with a lens of CR-SE. As part of this work they meet with the equity team, as well as team members form the district, OEA, and Dr. Eddie Fergus to focus on operationalizing change strategies in response to disparity patterns and root cause analysis.
