Equity at NTPS = Eliminating the Barriers!
-
At NTPS we interrupt factors that perpetuate systemic inequities and/or practices that contribute to over and under-representation of any student group compared to peers. We confront the institutional bias that results in predictability of student success or lack thereof, including but not limited to race and ethnicity, gender identity and sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, ability, language and culture.
