Oregon Ethnic Studies, Tribal History, 大屠杀 Education

Oregon’s Educational Equity Standards

Oregon has three complimentary social science standards to advance equity and culturally relevant and responsive education and that have important implications for social science instruction in Oregon’s K-12 schools.

• Tribal History/分享d History (SB13)
• 大屠杀 & Genocide Education (SB664)
• Ethnic Studies (HB2845)

OEA has partnered with various organizations and active members to provide professional learning on these three sets of standards including recorded webinars accessible at tinyurl.com/OEArecordings and online book studies and courses, accessible at grow.俄勒冈州.org. OEA’s Eye on Equity pages also provides numerous professional learning and instructional resources on a wide range of culturally relevant and responsive pedagogy.

Supporting All Students and Educators

Oregon has taken several steps to align laws, policies and programs to ensure all students and educators can access a quality education, including LGBTQ2SIA+ students and educators. Oregon’s laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation, including in public schools. Additionally, Oregon has created and funded the LGBTQ2SIA+ Student Success Plan. 的 plan was written to address barriers to educational success for Oregon students who identify as lesbian, 同性恋, 双性恋, 泛性的, 变性人, 酷儿, 质疑, 两个精神, 双性, 无性, 非, and the myriad of marginalized gender identities and sexual orientations represented by the (+). 的 student success plan establishes a framework for creating safe, inclusive and welcoming schools for LGBTQ2SIA+ students. Oregon law extends these protections to school staff as well.
