1 School Balanced Scorecard 2.0 (Single Plan for Student Achievement) School Name: A. P. Giannini Middle School 1: Access and Equity- Make Social Justice a Reality What does this goal mean at your school? What is the school you aspire to be with respect to access, equity, and social justice? This goal means that different needs are met with varied levels of resources, depending upon student need. A class with an opportunity for everyone to take part and given access to resources for success. Equity is not equality and will not look the same for everyone. All teachers will be responsible for teaching all students with support and resources. Equity is when opportunity is made available for all students, according to need, to enable each individual to reach his or her potential, to meet the outcome of a K-12 education that will allow students to have a positive role in society. Social Justice occurs when individuals are seen, heard, and treated without (social) bias. All teachers will be responsible for teaching all students with support; Giannini students are Giannini students, not Special Ed./General Ed. Description of current conditions including data, promising practices or assets your site has in place for this goal.
