General Compliance and Equity Plan
The SCCE helps create schools that work for all children by protecting their civil rights and guaranteeing their equal educational opportunities. Since 1975, the center has guided more than 1,000 school districts to focus on educational opportunity as a fundamental responsibility for which all schools and districts are accountable.
The center can help you develop links to the community and dialogs with parents of traditionally underserved students.
The center can help reduce school minority community tensions and lessen intergroup tensions, racial and sexual harassment, and linguistic barriers that often threaten effective educational outcomes for students.
The center provides you with comprehensive ongoing technical assistance in the area of equity.
If your school district is developing or revising programs to comply with court orders to desegregate, or
If your school district is not in compliance with state or federal laws regarding civil rights discrimination against racial or linguistic minorities or against males or females,
Then you may be eligible to receive extended services - up to 15 days of technical assistance and training each year.
If you are developing an equity plan to address a school reform issue,
Then we can assist you to formulate and implement a response.
As part of the center’s commitment to sustainable change, your district will be encouraged to evaluate extensively the process and end results, and to share responsibility for the training and follow-up activities.
Other services available to your district include regional participation in regional meetings, institutes, and coordination meetings and access to a variety of desegregation and equity information. The center creates and supports model programs that can be used by other school districts and state education agencies to develop policies that support curricular and instructional changes.
