Equity in SCASD
Equity in our district means that every student, family, and employee has the resources and support they need to succeed because the State College Area School District recognizes the importance of equity and is engaged in a concerted effort to provide more caring and inclusive experiences for every student, in 2016, it formed the SCASD Office of Equity, Inclusion and Belonging. Our district's equity efforts are guided by district policy 100.1: Inclusive Excellence Policy and SCASD Board of Directors AntiRacism Resolution.
