Seaside SD says equity advisory committee is "up and running" under SB 732; board to receive triannual updates
Summary
Administrators told the board their SB 732-required district equity advisory committee has two students, five parents and eight staff and will present feedback to the board three times a year; staff said they will recruit additional students and parents to ensure diverse representation.
Seaside School District reported compliance steps under Oregon’s SB 732: the district convened a district equity advisory committee and plans regular reporting to the board.
"We are up and running with this committee," Superintendent Susan Penrod said, noting the group’s first meeting earlier in the month. Penrod said the committee currently includes two students, five parents and eight staff members (three of whom also are parents) and that staff will continue outreach to recruit additional students and parent representatives so the committee reflects diverse perspectives from underserved groups.
Penrod also said the district plans monthly committee meetings and for the committee to present feedback to the board three times a year. Board members pressed staff about recruiting students from underserved groups and staff said they would reach out to specific student groups and administrators to broaden membership.
