THE EQUITY PROMISE

Mounds View Public Schools is committed to preparing all students for opportunities of their choice after high school, whether they choose a college, a trade school, technical college, the military or employment.

The Equity Promise states: Programs and services will be in place at all schools to ensure that race, gender, class and disability will not predict students ’ success in Mounds View Public Schools. Student academic performance will not fall into patterns identifiable by factors such as race, ethnicity, English language proficiency, socio-economic status and disability. The school that a student attends will not be the predictor of his/her school success. EQUITY PROMISE SCHOLARSHIPS
