Sustaining Equity and Access for All Learners: The NextGen Science Standards in Action

Providing equal access to science is at the core of the NGS standards, but what does this look like in practice – and how do you scale this initiative in a district with 130,000 students speaking more than 50 different languages? Dr. Godfrey Rangasammy, K-12 Science Supervisor at Prince George's County Public Schools, shares their district’s journey as one of the first districts in the country to implement NGSS through the equity and access lens, including how they scaled the program and how they vetted products to ensure they supported the NGS standards.
