Background:
|
This resolution was adopted by the Board in November 2022. It emphasizes providing opportunities for student voice through engagement in various school-based and district-wide activities and events that foster equity, and to utilize a student-created evaluation tool to collect data on the impact of school-based and district-wide efforts to further advance equity in MPS. The Administration currently provides and will continue to provide a variety of diverse academic, racial, ethnic, cultural and linguistic, social-emotional, and leadership opportunities to support the diverse needs and interests of students, parents/guardians, staff, and the Board in efforts to advance the goal of equity in MPS. During the 2022 - 2023 school year, student data focused on equity was collected as a part of the Strategic Planning Process, MPS/Milwaukee Succeeds Student Voice Initiatives, Black and Latino Male Achievement, and other initiatives. Students have contributed to this resolution by creating open-ended questions for the development of the Student-Created Equity Evaluation Tool. Some of the student-created questions were modified to be utilized as multiple choice questions in the Student Strategic Plan Survey. Efforts underway to advance the goal of equity in MPS include Student Leadership Summits, Superintendent's Student Advisory Council (SSAC), MPS Food Justice Task Force, Resolution 2122R-004 Middle and High School Equity, Ambitious Instruction- Accelerating Learning, college and career readiness activities, Seal of Biliteracy, early childhood efforts, professional development opportunities, parent/guardian learning opportunities, expanding academic programs and enrichment opportunities through internal and external collaborations, and personal efficacy for all.
