To maximize student excellence and social justice, Ferguson-Florissant School District is on its journey to becoming an anti-racist organization that furthers educational equity for all students, especially our most marginalized students. FFSD Standards for Social Justice in Anti-Racist Schools will further our progress in this journey, challenging us to understand and correct the inequities that may unintentionally exist within our district, to proactively act in ways that promote anti-racism, and to build on the strengths that have enabled our past progress around race and bias. Similar to educational standards, FFSD Standards for Social Justice in Anti-Racist Schools represent the vision and goals that we will achieve as we move towards becoming an anti-racist organization.

The standards focus on seven areas:
• Student and Family Empowerment Rights
• Student Development and Progress
• Communication, Dialogue, and Community Engagement
• Leadership
• Teaching and Learning; Curriculum and Assessments
• Policy Governance, Procedures, Administration
• Adult Learning and Recruitment

These standards will guide our work in the present and the future, serving as a framework for further, longer-term, multi-year
strategies that guide the organization towards anti-racism.
