This book is for education leaders who do not accept the that the
underachievement of African American, Latino, Indigenous, low
income and other vulnerable student groups is inevitable. Where
Equity Lives: Shattering Systemic Inequity in Schools and Districts
is the result of 25 years of studying over 300 schools and
districts struggling to overturn the longstanding pattern of under
achievement of the same demographic groups. This book is a reveal
of the five most common systemic inequity traps identified through
the Study of Studies that help explain historic achievement
patterns. The authors lay out achievable paths of possibilities for
education leaders to reverse decades of under achievement.
Actionable insights are shared through real-life stories of schools
and districts that struggled with and took action to address each
of these traps. Chapters contain equity hooks—easy to remember
cues of complete, complex, and nuanced leadership takeaways. Online
templates are available for teams of leaders to apply the guidance
from each chapter to your school system so that vulnerable students
arrive at the spot where equity lives, that magnificent place where
demographics no longer predict achievement.
