Episode 44: Equitable Education

Nearly a year ago, “Perspectives” began a conversation on “Equitable Education” and today we want to continue the conversation. For this podcast, let’s use the working definition for “Equitable Education” as ‘the pursuit of creating an educational system that caters to students of all kinds and develops their educational experience accordingly.’ This means that no matter what a student’s background, language, race, economic profile, gender, learning capability, disability or family history, each student has the opportunity to get the support and resources they need to achieve their educational goals. With that in mind, are all school systems treated equally? Join Essence Learning CEO, Valerie Wilson, as she sits with DE+I leaders and professional educators to gain their perspective of America as an equitable classroom.
