Communities of Practice
Connect as leaders. Grow expertise.
Bring justice to education.
“The CoP has been a rewarding, thought-provoking, and enlightening experience for me. I’m still benefiting from the knowledge and relationships built and looking forward to the next CoP.”

CoP Theory of action:
- Connect as leaders across DCSC’s intentionally integrated member schools, so that practitioners can share experiences and build relationships.
- Grow expertise in how they iterate upon best practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion to support all students.
- Bring justice to education through developing tools for the field that disrupt the persisting status quo of racial and social inequality in schools.
