Members flag DESE Racial Imbalance Advisory Council report as context for framework
Summary
Committee members agreed the DESE Racial Imbalance Advisory Council report could inform district climate work; one member said the previous report identified statewide segregation issues and that many suggestions were not adopted by DESE.
Committee members raised the DESE Racial Imbalance Advisory Council report as a source the working group could consult for district context on segregation and equity. A member noted that the prior report "analyzed the lack of racial equity across the state" and included recommendations that the state did not adopt.
Members observed the council is being reactivated under a new commissioner and that any district-specific outputs from the council could provide useful high-level context for the working group's framework. The group agreed staff would share relevant sections from the prior report for the working group's review.
