What does it mean to close – to eliminate forever – the opportunity and achievement gaps currently confronting students of color?
What does it mean to close – to eliminate forever – the opportunity and achievement gaps currently confronting students of color?
While there are many components to this vision, we believe, at its most basic, that it means this:
Every child, in every classroom, in every school of the Boston Public School system has the same opportunity to achieve the greatness within them as anybody else. Every child has the same unfettered access to every conceivable tool to unlock the greatness within them. And we will know that they have that access because we will witness them achieve that greatness: enrolling and completing college at the same rates as anyone else; breaking into professions and positions of conspicuous influence in the community; and, along the way, reducing to a distant memory the opportunity and achievement gaps that had afflicted every generation before them.
In the long history of the United States, no city has yet to fully realize this vision. If there is any city in the Nation poised to bring this vision to pass, it is Boston. Boston would be the first. And it must be. --The Preamble to BPS Opportunity and Achievement Gap Policy 2016
