Advancing Equity in Schools

Years of direct research of high-performing schools by Accelerate Institute has shown one thing consistently: having the right leader and the right systems in place makes it possible to give students an equitable education.

But how do we move beyond research and frameworks toward implementing changes within schools?

Dr. Catherine Burns, Accelerate Institute Chief Academic Officer, will moderate a discussion that builds on the stories featured in our latest report and focuses on changing systems and adults to transform schools so that students can achieve and thrive.

You’ll hear from three transformational leaders who have taken on the challenge of changing systems and adult mindsets within their schools to expand opportunities for students.
