“We need more light about each other. Light creates understanding, understanding creates love, love creates patience, and patience creates unity.”
Malcolm X
What is Equity?
Equity is a measure of educational outcomes. Equity extends beyond the "level playing field" analogy and becomes the yardstick by which we measure the results of our educational system. When our system is truly equitable, it will be impossible to predict the academic success of our children based on race, class, or disability.
