Office of Black Student Achievement
Overview
OBSA exists to awaken the greatness within Black students in MPS to have them determined to believe and achieve success as defined by their own values and dreams. We are unapologetic advocates for Black students and their families and pursue the holistic social, intellectual, physical, emotional, cultural, and academic well-being of our students and their families. We are committed to dismantling persistent racial disparities and ensuring all Black students thrive. We achieve this through PD for educators, authentic engagement of families, and direct service to students. Our direct service to students includes engagement of students in elementary, middle and high school. For high school students, we offer an elective course, Youth Leadership Council, HBCU & Historical Sites tour, and one-on-one coaching. At elementary and middle schools, we actively identify academic gaps and implement an intentional check-in model that integrates academic performance, SEL, and family engagement.
