T.C.A.P.S. Gender Equity Committee
Philosophy & Goals

EQUITY MATTERS

We believe in an equitable school where all students, parents, and staff are respected, feel welcome, and are treated as equal members of their school community.  We believe in an equitable school where all students and staff are challenged to do their best regardless of race, gender, national origin, language, and/or special needs.

CONFLICT RESOLUTION  

A primary goal of the TCAPS Gender Equity Committee is to promote decision–making and problem-solving skills that promote non-violent solutions for conflict resolution.  Non-violence is a priority in our school district.
