The release of this diversity plan is the next step in the City’s ongoing work to increase school diversity. It represents a critical milestone in the City’s Equity and Excellence for All agenda, and begins to lay out an approach to increasing diversity in the school system. The plan sets specific initial goals for making schools more diverse and inclusive that will be reported on annually. This includes 12 proposals to address policies and practices that pose challenges to school diversity; this report is organized in a way that aligns each activity to one of these proposals. | Families and communities | Equity & Excellence for All |

| 3-K, Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten | Finalized plans to align admissions processes for 3-K, pre-K, and Kindergarten | The DOE developed plans to switch from a "Round 1/Round 2" model for the pre-K application and a "Main Round/Waitlist" model for 3-K to a "Main Round/Late Application" process for both for fall 2018 admissions, which will bring them into alignment with the Kindergarten application. This greatly simplifies the application process for families participating in successive years' admissions processes. | Families and communities | Simplifying Admissions Methods and Processes |
