Our Commitment to Equity

As we face the social turmoil of our nation and communities, we, as a public education institution, must take time to reflect on our own practices as we seek to create a strong and positive environment for the education of ALL young people as they learn and grow. San Juan Island School District unequivocally stands for equality, and against racism and bigotry.

+ Equity Tool
Educational equity is a foundational part of our educational system for every student in our school district. We began this Academic and Student Well-being Recovery Plan by using our equity tool to inform our decisions and planning by anticipating a range of perspectives and needs. Our recovery plans and decisions are made to support equity and inclusion and we support those values.
