Our Walla Walla School Board has come to define equity in the following way:

"Equity in Walla Walla Public Schools begins by recognizing the diversity of our lived experiences and commits us to actions and attitudes that ensure a universal sense of belonging and the collective flourishing of our community.
  • We see you.
  • We value you.
  • We listen to you.
  • We believe in you.

YOU BELONG HERE."

The following anonymous survey, in addition to numerous focus groups, were developed by the school board in order to gain important feedback and perspectives from parents and families. They appreciate you taking a few minutes to provide input related to progress made, as well as areas for growth, as the board seeks to develop policies and procedures in support of their equity goals.
