Culturally Responsive Practices for Underrepresented Youth
Cohort 1 and Cohort 2





Studies show that the use of culturally responsive practices can have a profoundly positive impact on the achievement and behavior of our African American and Latino students. Join us as we immerse ourselves into learning and applying culturally responsive practices in our social studies classrooms. In this year-long cohort, teachers will become reflective practitioners who question their own personal biases and practices, explore relevant topics and evidence-based strategies, and apply these practices to their instruction. Teachers will engage in monthly workshops, networking opportunities and assignments that will enable them to be better able to interact, inspire, and address the needs of these underrepresented student groups.
