- Summary:
-
This handbook focuses on parent, student, and staff responsibilities as they relate to the achievement of an excellent and equitable education for all students. Equity should be a major concern of all schools as an approach to teaching that extends through the grades. Responsibilities are listed for school staff members (administrators and teachers); parents; students; and school staff members, parents, and students collectively. Effective school programs contain the following key equity components: (1) equity should permeate the entire 13 years of a student's school experience and the entire curriculum; (2) equity should be a part of all courses offered in schools; (3) instructional styles of teachers and practices of administrators should reflect a concern for equity; (4) staff training in equity is necessary; (5) educational materials must reflect a concern for equity; and (6) frequent review and evaluation should be conducted to ensure that education is preparing students to become responsible and unbiased citizens. A 40-item list of references, a glossary, and a summary of nine Federal non-discrimination laws and court cases are appended. (SLD)
