History
Two years ago, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) Team was developed at the WESD. In 2021, the team adopted a new name, The Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Advisory Team.

Equity is the ‘why’, diversity is the ‘who’, and inclusion is the ‘how’. 💙💚💛

Who We Are
We are a team of collaborative and diverse staff, that promote and make recommendations for embedding EDI practices into the organizational architecture.
We serve as advisors to the Superintendent and the Leadership Team. We respond to departments and staff members making inquiries about EDI practices. The Team recommends research-based strategies, methods, techniques, and professional development opportunities that support racial and cultural equity of historically marginalized groups.
The EDI Advisory Team makes recommendations for changes to practices, policies, procedures, and protocols that are related to creating and sustaining equitable systemic change.
