Home REL Mid-Atlantic About REL Mid-Atlantic Using Measurement and Evidence to Promote Racial Equity in the School District of Philadelphia
Acknowledging persistent disparities in student outcomes and a history of structural racism in the district, in 2021 the School District of Philadelphia (SDP) announced its goal to become a more equitable school district by examining and disrupting inequitable processes and practices.
Through the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), SDP seeks to address institutional practices, policies, and procedures that contribute to disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes and make progress toward its goal of improving equitable opportunities and outcomes for students. REL Mid-Atlantic is partnering with SDP to assist its efforts to use evidence to inform, monitor, and refine its equity initiatives to enable more equitable opportunities and outcomes for all students.
