Revisiting the Loudoun County Commitment to Equity
In light of recent tragic events that have sparked loud voices for equity and civil change in our nation, I am sharing Dr. Williams Equity statement with all of you again. As we close out this school year, it is critical that we stop and take a moment to be thankful that we live in a community that embraces diversity and views it as an asset, not as a burden.
Superintendent's Equity Statement
LCPS is committed to providing a safe, empathetic, respectful and supportive learning environment in order to empower every student to make meaningful contributions to the world. When students and staff experience racial insults, slurs, and/or other hate speech, we lack the positive culture and climate that supports students’ growth.
LCPS calls for all students, staff, families, and other members of our community to engage in the disruption and dismantling of white supremacy, systemic racism, and hateful language and actions based on race, religion, country of origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, and/or ability. LCPS rejects racist and other hateful behavior and language, recognizing that it encourages discrimination, hatred, oppression, and violence.
Every individual is valued in Loudoun County Public Schools. Let’s celebrate the diversity that helps define us as a school division.
Below are resources that may be helpful to LCPS staff and families as children begin asking questions about what they see and hear on the news.
