Excellence with Equity: It’s Everybody’s Business

Excellence with Equity: It’s Everybody’s Business, a report that details findings and recommendations from a group of Kentuckians to address the Commonwealth’s education achievement gaps.The report makes clear that the work of addressing Kentucky’s achievement gaps is everybody’s business. Along with parents, students, educators, and other citizens, we need policy, education, business, community, and faith leaders all over the state to share responsibility to expand opportunities and lift performance of all students.Given Kentucky’s record of steady educational progress, the tremendous capacity of its educators, and the strong tradition in our communities that all children are “our kids,” there is ample reason for optimism that the Commonwealth can be the first state to achieve excellence with equity.
