Westport Public Schools will conduct an equity and inclusivity study to identify the principal sources of inequity in the district, per an email sent to parents and staff on March 9 from Assistant Superintendent Anthony Buono.
“Westport Public Schools is partnering with The NYU Metropolitan Center for Research on Equity and the Transformation of School to conduct an analysis of the root causes of disproportionate student outcomes,” Buono wrote. “A Lead Learner team of teachers, parents, administrators, staff, and Board of Education members will collaboratively analyze and disaggregate academic and behavioral data and examine findings in relation to existing policies, practices and procedures.”
