Living Equity in All We Do
September 15, 2021
Our Equity Vision
At Round Lake Area Schools, we affirm the unique value and essential dignity of every child and adult. We challenge the systemic inequities in society that dishonor this belief. We commit to transforming our educational system by living equity in all we do.

The priority is to ensure all students an opportunity to achieve to their fullest capacity." - Gorski, 2018Learn more about Equity at RLAS-116, along with the established Equity Commitments and Actions Steps at on the District's Equity webpage!
