The Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) Office of Equity and Diversity, led by Mrs. Wood-Setzer, demonstrates a clear commitment to fostering equitable learning environments. The mission is to ensure all students have fair access to resources, programs, and opportunities that support their success inside and outside the classroom. Supported by Mrs. Stacie Wright and other key stakeholders, the office’s collaborative approach includes:
1. Professional Development: Designing training opportunities for staff and leaders to deepen awareness and advocacy for equity.
2. Initiatives: Driving actions that aim to dismantle barriers and promote inclusion.
3. System-wide Integration: Embedding equity and diversity into the culture and operations of every school and department.
By prioritizing safe, valued, and resource-rich environments, MCPS demonstrates a commitment to equitable outcomes for its diverse student population. Would you like help with a specific aspect, such as drafting communication materials or designing related programs?
