During the 23-24 school year, 84 participants from 35 DCSC member schools gathered in our Communities of Practice (CoP) to develop resources for the field of diverse-by-design education practitioners.
Connect as leaders. Grow expertise. Bring justice to education.
When leaders design systems with learner variability at the center, all students benefit. This CoP aimed to ensure leaders can name the criteria for inclusive school-wide systems, specifically as it relates to learner variability, and evaluate their existing vision and systems through this lens. Leaders walked away with a framework for inclusive schools and an analysis of their own systems and a set of concrete action steps needed to improve their systems.
