Tell CA Education Leaders to Publicly Report Important Race & Gender Data

The Issue

We urge the California Department of Education to publicly report achievement, opportunity, and access data by both race and gender combined and to more accurately report data on Asian students by detailed subgroup. Continuing to not release this data publicly hides important information about disparities within groups of students and reinforces misperceptions of Asian Americans as a monolithic group. This data is crucial to better identifying what’s working for students, and what’s not, and to give educators and advocates the information they need to close opportunity and achievement gaps. Help us urge the state to do this by signing this petition.
