IX.B.
Acceptance of Racial Equity Policy Update
In December 2018, the Jefferson County Board of Education approved the Racial Equity Policy. The policy called for upending racist practices, policies, and beliefs that are causing disproportionality, inequities in access to educational opportunities, a lower sense of belonging for Black and Brown students, as well as other negative racialized outcomes.
As one of the Three Pillars that guide the work of the District, the issue of Racial Equity has been a central part of the work. The Coronavirus has only exacerbated the systemic racial inequities that the District seeks to end. Inasmuch, the Racial Equity plans developed by schools and central office are more important than ever, and need to be accelerated so as to mitigate the damage of racism and COVID-19. Many students and families of all races have been impacted by these tremendous obstacles, but as a consequence of historic and continuing systemic racism embedded throughout our society, Black and Brown families have been disproportionately impacted.
In this presentation, the Superintendent and his leadership team will share the District's Racial Equity Policy update. The presentation is more than an update. It serves as a way to detail an acceptable and accelerated course of action that focuses on systemic disruptions and will address the needs of students, families, and staff.
The District must make sure that it centers justice and Racial Equity in everything it does. In doing so, the updated metrics to the Racial Policy/Plan will be presented. The Board agreed to add more direct and impactful goals that directly improve academic outcomes for students of color.
Submitted by: Dr. John Marshall

Recommendation for Approval of Agreements
X.L.1.
Recommendation for Approval of Memorandum of Agreement with Bluegrass Community and Technical College for Dual Credit
We are partnering with Bluegrass Community and Technical College (BCTC) because Jefferson Community & Technical College does not offer courses or a pathway in Cinematography or Graphic Design.
Dual Credit personnel from BCTC have worked with the high school staff to identify teachers with the necessary credentials to offer dual credit for students scheduled in those courses. This agreement aligns with the Dual Credit Scholarship Program. These dual credit courses can be transferred to any regionally accredited college or university for credit. BCTC is a Partner Postsecondary Institution with Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA) for that program.
Specifically:
- Scholarship funds may be used for dual credit unless the student has exceeded course limitations in the state regulation or state funds are exhausted. In that case, the student/family is responsible for paying tuition.
- Tuition is set to 50% of Kentucky Community & Technical College System (KCTCS) tuition (as required by the PPI agreement with the KHEAA). BCTC will not charge JCPS for reimbursement of unsuccessful student tuition when the course is taken on a JCPS campus with JCPS faculty.
Currently approved courses Included in this agreement are below. This agreement allows JCPS to add new courses as instructors and course alignment are available.

Recommendation for Approval of Amendment #1 to the Extension Memorandum of Understanding with Digital Promise for the Verizon Innovative Learning Initiative
The purpose of this amendment serves to update the original Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Digital Promise Global and Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS), executed on May 31, 2022, regarding JCPS's participation in the Verizon Innovative Learning Schools program as part of years 3 and 4 of Cohort 7.
This amendment acknowledges that starting in the 2022-2023 school year (year 3 of the program), Frost Middle School and Stuart Middle School will be merging into one school named Stuart Academy. JCPS will receive 5 coach stipends for the 2022-2023 school year to reflect the new number of schools participating in the program. The original MOU with Digital Promise accepted six middle schools into the Verizon Innovative Learning Initiative (VILS) Cohort 7 for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years.
This project aligns with Vision 2020 strategy 1.1.7 and does not obligate the District financially after the project period.
