At the same time, school districts found themselves serving as first responders during a public health crisis, connecting students and families to basic needs, essential services, and support. As summer began, millions of Americans took to the streets to protest police brutality and systemic racism in the wake of the killings of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, and others. Both COVID-19 and the movement to uproot systemic racism have continued into the 2020-21 school year. For many school districts, distance learning remains the sole delivery path for learning, while other districts have opened campuses with new protocols for physical distancing, hygiene, and the mandatory wearing of masks.  \nThe Brookings Institution estimates that, on average, students will have suffered a 30 to 40 percent learning loss due to the disruption in face-to-face learning caused by COVID-19. This assessment is alarming for any student but is even more troubling when one considers the persistent performance trends for students of color, students with disabilities, and students who are English learners. A  \n40 percent learning loss for the most vulnerable students coupled with meager achievement in a normal school year will turn the achievement gap into a chasm.  \nYet, the challenges of the present circumstances present a unique opportunity for long-needed change. We are collectively experiencing a watershed moment where many sacrosanct aspects of society—from law enforcement to the structure of work—are being scrutinized and reimagined. As the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement endure, it has become increasingly clear that it will not be possible to return to the way things used to be. The only way out is through a different and better way of living. For school districts, this means a different and better way of schooling.  \nSi","cbCainaAMAUmVrd1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainaAMAUmVrd1","pdf",936366,28,"English","# Foreword\n# What Do We Mean by “Equity”? \n# The Culturally Responsive Board\n# Designing Your Portfolio of Schools for Excellence, Equity, and Integration\n# Ensuring World-Class Teaching and Learning\n# Taking a Whole Child Approach to Safety and Well-being\n# Providing Safe Spaces for Learning\n# Including Parents, Family, and Community\n# Equity Cannot Wait\n# Additional Resources\n# About NSBA","[{\"question\":\"Why does the report emphasize reimagining school board leadership now?\",\"answer\":\"Because COVID-19 caused widespread learning disruption and the broader movement to address systemic racism has continued into the 2020–21 school year, making a return to prior schooling structures untenable.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the report mean by “equity”?\",\"answer\":\"Educational equity is achieved when all students receive the resources they need so they graduate, with supports and interventions based on student needs rather than one-size-fits-all approaches.\"},{\"question\":\"How are school boards expected to act to achieve equity?\",\"answer\":\"School board members should lead with an equity lens to define equity clearly and redesign district systems so every student has equitable access to a world-class education.\"}]","Reimagining School Board Leadership - Actions for Equity | PDF",1792055855,71]
