Accountability - …is the indicator of the district’s strengths and challenges;
…is the compass directing where we need to place our energy to improve;
…is our report to the public who fund our enterprise;
…is about all of our students.
Governor Linwood Holton’s 1970 inaugural speech
“… an aristocracy of ability, regardless of race, color or creed.”

• In 2008, to ensure that equitable educational opportunities were available
to all students, the Roanoke City Public Schools School Board analyzed and
adjusted elementary school and middle school attendance zones.
• As a result, several school closings and repurposing of buildings were
approved.
• Two elementary school buildings were repurposed, one became a site for
alternative education, and the other an academy for overage/under-
credited students. Thus far, the academy has had 853 graduates. Two
additional elementary schools and one middle school were closed.
• The Equity Policy was initially approved by the Board in June 2009.
