Oregon’s 2019 Educator Equity Report Findings

A Message from Colt Gill, 2018 Statewide Educator Equity Summit

“...my equity work will evolve over time, I will always have more to learn. Secondly, I learn by listening carefully, being curious and honoring the voices of those with experiences and identities different from mine. And finally, I must remember to remain humble in this work, understanding that I can always take my knowledge and action to a deeper level - allowing myself to be vulnerable in the effort.”
