Educational Equity Policy

    The Gwinnett County Board of Education is committed to educating all students and to providing the resources needed to support high-quality teaching and learning. The district’s focus on increasing student achievement, access, and opportunities through the implementation of equitable and inclusive educational and workplace policies and practices reduces barriers and builds the district’s capacity to deliver innovative, effective, and culturally relevant services.

    The Board of Education authorizes the CEO/Superintendent and his or her designee to design or redesign systemic programs and initiatives to address and reduce educational inequity, providing students and staff with targeted supports and enrichment that increase opportunities to succeed.

     Educational Equity: Providing access to ensure that all students have the knowledge and skills to succeed as contributing members of a global society, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic background, English proficiency, faith, socioeconomic status, or disability.
