A four-step process for effective equity practices in schools, with
an array of professional development activities, leadership tips,
and downloadable tools. Recent years have brought new calls to
dismantle discriminatory policies and practices in U.S. schools.
But adopting an equity focus doesn't guarantee the desired results.
There's a risk that doing equity will be toothless-surface level
and designed more to avoid tension and blame than to build a better
educational system. In Leading Your School Toward Equity, veteran
educator Dwayne Chism shows district, school, and teacher leaders a
four-step process for taking equity work beyond talk and into
effective action. You'll learn concrete ways to: Define and clarify
equity. Guide even reluctant staff to a consensus understanding of
what equity is, why it's necessary, and what it will look like.
Create productive discomfort. Use intentional dialogue to lead
staff to a place where they can talk frankly about privilege, bias,
racial inequality, and how these affect students' experience of
schooling. Build efficacy. Help staff develop higher levels of
individual and shared professional efficacy-the number one factor
influencing equitable educational outcomes-and create an empowered
group of educational equity allies united for results. Normalize
action. Support the day-to-day use of an equity lens, a mindset
that empowers all teachers to counteract stereotypes and rectify
conditions that negatively affect students of color. To make this
complicated work a little easier, Chism provides an array of
assessments, coaching guides, and activities to use with staff. If
you're committed to creating a true equity-driven culture, if
you're ready for courageous leadership, this book is for you.
