         <description><![CDATA[<div>The big idea of Equity stands out for me the most. It is critical to honor a student's assets, potential, and resources. Our society is becoming more diverse and we need our classrooms to reflect this richness. Every child has a strength in which we can build success, this is the best way to do so. </div>]]></description>

All students being present does not mean they are being given the same opportunities, and a focus on how supporting students language enhances equity will foster their sense of belonging in the learning process.</div>]]></description>

         <title>Equity resonates with me. I work in a Title 1 school with many ELL students. The need for them to have access to ALL resources before they can thrive is the foundation of their success (e.g. more ELL staff, etc…).</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Collaboration resonates the most with me. Our building works really hard to make sure there is a smooth transition from grade to grade since we only have one classroom for each grade. Having that collaboration in the school makes it easier for the students learning of skills in every subject area.</div>]]></description>
