Increasing Educator Diversity Action Plan
As part of its Five-year Comprehensive Plan, The Connecticut State Board of Education has promised Connecticut students great teachers and leaders stating, “Great teachers and leaders collectively reflect the rich cultural diversity in Connecticut and are culturally responsive instructors.” For the past five years Coventry Public Schools has had a district goal to recruit a diverse candidate pool and increase the number of diverse educators in Coventry. Grant funding has also supported us in this endeavor. In 2023, the state legislature passed a mandate that beginning July 1, 2024 every school district implement its increasing educator diversity plan approved by the Commissioner of Education and make its plan available on its district website. Coventry Public School’s Increasing Educator Diversity plan was approved by the Commissioner in June 2024.
