In alignment with guidance from OCSA’s Advisory Committee, the following initiatives have been designated as areas of focus for this school year.
We Will Continue To:
Broaden Restorative Practices Training for administrative, instructional, and counseling staff and continue to implement Restorative Circles and Community Circles in interventions to the degree possible.
Research employee recruitment best practices to expand opportunities for BIPOC candidates.
Utilize our Culturally and Linguistic Relevant Teaching (CLRT) framework to evaluate and support performance material and oversight.
Expand our partnerships with the community and intentionally design programs that serve the needs of their constituencies.
Implement Universal Design for Learning (UDL) to ensure equitable classroom experiences for all students.
Create opportunities for students’ voices to be heard and share feedback on the OCSA Administrative Team’s plans and updates for antiracism and inclusion initiatives.
