“Change is never easy, but always possible.”

The equity services department is designed to develop, implement, support and/or evaluate all equity activities, programs and services districtwide to effectively support staff and students
Equity services works to ensure that all members of the District 742 community—staff, families and students—have access to supportive educational opportunities that promote success for everyone.
Meet the Team!
The equity team is pictured. Equity services promotes educational equity for students and their families by engaging in open dialogue and collaboration with leaders, staff and the community.
Educational equity outreach coordinators (EEOCs) focus on developing action plans tailored to our students' needs with an intentional focus on promoting the Achievement and Integration Plan.
Family advocates find supports and opportunities that mitigate burdens and barriers for our students and their families.
Kip and Heather seek to strengthen and promote positive experiences and educational outcomes for our American Indian students through our American Indian Education Program
Our bilingual communication support specialists (BCSSs) create access for our multilingual students and their families. We also have a District Language Plan that supports all language needs.
