“Embark on Your Equity Journey with ACSES!
What is Equity?
Equity is often confused with equality. For example, while EQUALITY means everyone receives the same shirt, EQUITY ensures everyone gets a shirt that fits them. Equity prioritizes individual needs, fairness, and justice.
What is ACSES?
ACSES is a classroom quality measurement and improvement system. This tool assists Federal, State, and local leaders in creating equity-centered and high-quality early learning environments that promote positive outcomes for racially marginalized learners.
