[quote=Anonymous]The ultimate in equity is teaching ALL students to read at or above grade level. Too many schools are not following the science of reading and are not teaching kids, especially low income kids to read. If districts spent all this money that they are spending on equity training on early intensive academics and programs , kids would be able to read on grade level. There needs to be a system where kids are continually assessed and given intensive intervention. It is so much cheaper to remediate k-2 then have a kid go through years of academic failure. Any student entering first grade behind should be placed in a small group reading and writing intervention for as many hours a day as it takes to learn how to read. It might take 2 or 3 years but then they would be on grade level by 3rd or 4th. Instead of helping low income/low performing students schools will abolish advanced classes to slow down others.
