Mrs. Lengle, Director of Pupil Services, is representing WASD on the Berks County Equity Committee, chaired by Dr. Hackman and Dr. Mumin and facilitated by the BCIU. Each Berks district will be sending a central office administrator. The purpose of the committee is as follows:
- Support Berks County efforts to promote equity
- Encourage open dialogue and conversations about equity issues
- Increase awareness and understanding to enhance equity efforts
- Share resources and best practices regarding equity (leadership, professional development, student engagement, hiring practices, etc.) to provide members with tools and actionable strategies
This group will support our efforts at WASD and will help us identify key resources to shape our taskforce and action steps. This group will also allow us to build working connections with other administrators and districts involved in this important work.
