A Community Led Diversity Plan

WXY was commissioned by the New York City Department of Education’s (DOE) to work collaboratively with the District 15 community (Brooklyn, NY)  to envision a more equitable and integrated school district. The D15 Diversity Plan is the first district-wide community-based planning process aimed at creating diverse, meaningfully integrated middle schools in New York City. The report and set of recommendations, now online, focus on policies which promote integration and foster inclusive school communities. The city approval of the plan was covered in WNYC, Wall Street Journal and New York Times.
