"One of Rochester Public Schools’ (RPS) core beliefs is that equity is a lens through which all decisions should be made.
On July 21, 2020, Superintendent Munoz updated the board with a three-year equity plan, accounting for the $169,000 enhancement in year one. The equity plan was developed with feedback from a variety of stakeholders:
Equity Specialists
American Indian Liaison
Employees of Color Resource Group (EoCRG)
Bilinguals
Other employees of color
Students of color
Coordinator of Equity
The common feedback themes across all stakeholders was similar:
Representation in the curriculum/anti-racist curriculum
Direct support for students/families of color (Additional equity specialist)
Recruitment/ Retainment of Staff of Color
Cabinet position
Professional development in cultural competence/anti-racism
Discipline/achievement data"
