Key terms to know from the CalAPA Glossary: 

Equity-driven leadership: An equity-driven leader must have the ability to (1) conceptualize schools as complex organizations composed of a network of dynamic and interdependent thinking components, (2) pursue school change and improvement through systemic change and capacity building, and (3) create and articulate a shared vision of a school as a place where all students are fully engaged, inspired, and empowered, and their voices are heard. 

Equity gap analysis: The process of identifying discrepancies between resource allocations and outcomes for previously identified underserved students specified in school site/district improvement plans and actual performance in relation to those measures. Results of an equity gap analysis may show, for example, a lack of monitoring for effectiveness; that data are incomplete or insufficient, and require more qualitative data such as student shadowing; or identification of additional underserved student groups.
