The Utah State Board of Education will consider repealing an administrative rule that ensures “educational equity” for all Utah students.
R277-328 Educational Equity in Schools defines “equity” as recognizing that all students can learn and that schools will provide the resources they need for equal educational opportunities. That includes funding, programs, policies, and other supports to afford students the same access to education, no matter their backgrounds.
The repeal request comes from state board members Christina Boggess, Emily Green and Joseph Kerry. They did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
