Vision: All students prepared for post-secondary pathways, careers, and civic engagement. Mission: Transform K– 12 education to a system that is centered on closing opportunity gaps and is characterized by high expectations for all students and educators. We achieve this by developing equity-based policies and supports that empower educators, families, and communities. Values:

Equity Statement Each student, family, and community possesses strengths and cultural knowledge that benefit their peers, educators, and schools. Equity Statement Ensuring Educational Equity Goes Beyond Equality Inclusion & Reimaging • it requires education leaders to examine the ways current policies and practices result in disparate outcomes for our: • Students of color • Students living in poverty • Students receiving special education • Students receiving English Learner services • Students who identify as LGBTQ+ • Highly mobile student populations • Requires education leaders to develop an understanding of historical contexts; • engage students, families, and community representatives as partners in decision-making; • Actively dismantle systemic barriers • replacing them with policies and practices that ensure all students have access to the instruction and support they need to succeed in our schools 6/7/2021 | 10

Office of System & School Improvement Study Focus on schools identified for supports We believe we are more likely to see school improvement across multiple measures if we: Support Connect programming to specific needs Serve Build the health of systems Elevate Provide professional learning on data inquiry and supportive resources and tools

The Power of Hope

What is Hope? Hope is the belief that your future will be better than today and you have the power to make it so.

Goal setting is the cornerstone of hope. The Simplicity of Hope Pathways refers to the ability to identify routes toward goals and to find new routes (problem solve) around obstacles if necessary. Agency (Willpower) is the ability to sustain motivation to move along these pathways.

Willpower (Agency) Tenets of Hope Valued Goal Way Power (Pathways) …agency without pathways is a wish!

The Science of Hope 2, 000 Published Studies Hope is linked to positive outcomes and important assets: ØGoal Achievement ØResilience, Optimism, Self-Control ØEducation ØWell-Being
