USD116 has five equity strands that are monitored and reviewed for continuous improvement:

• Systems: Ensure a systemic and continuous development toward advancing equity across policies such as
  attendance, academic monitoring, restorative practice, and clear expectations across all USD 116 schools.
• Student Voice: Ensure a systemic and continuous development toward advancing equity across policies such as
  attendance, academic monitoring, restorative practice, and clear expectations across all USD 116 schools.
• Teaching and Learning: Intentionally embed equity-driven pedagogy across all content areas through
  curricular resources, instructional strategies, use of assessments, and academic programming for the purpose of
  advancing equity among all students.
• Family and Community as Agency: Foster authentic opportunities to develop partnerships with families and
  stakeholders to enrich the lives of students and the greater community.
• Professional Learning: Provide opportunities for professional growth to meet diverse learners’ needs.

Each school also creates a school improvement plan around these goals. These individual plans can be found below.
