Abstract | When the Chicago Public Schools' Office of Equity was established in September 2018, the goal was to take a systemic approach to building equity so that every student would have access to a high-quality education, regardless of race, ZIP code, ability, or country of origin. It was known that this goal could not be achieved through a series of standalone initiatives. Equity must be the core value that informs every decision made, from capital improvements to curriculum design, and it requires attention from every member of the staff, schools, and communities. The work of making equity systemic in the district began before the framework was complete. And it did not begin with the implementation of an initiative or policy. It started with the team's behavior -- how they showed up and how they listened. That story, which is shared in this article, is one to tell as other districts begin their own equity journeys.
