Resource Guide: Got Justice? Creating and Sustaining an Equitable School Culture

In th 2020-2021 school year, more than 70 participants from 21 DCSC member schools gathered in our Communities of Practice (CoP) to develop resources for the field of diverse-by-design education practitioners. 

join a community of practice in 25-26

Connect as leaders. Grow expertise. Bring justice to education.

Dwight Thomas from Prospect Schools, described a turbulent period of change to characterize the present moment in terms of social justice movements and abolition of the school-to-prison pipeline. We were delighted to have him lead educators from DCSC member schools through a Community of Practice in 2020–2021 in the resource guide shown below.

For PK–12 practitioners seeking tools to center anti-racism and refocus discussions of “problem behaviors,” look no further! Not only does this guide include step-by-step processes and templates to evaluate and adjust existing school policies, but it also has resources to train and develop teams in alternatives to exclusionary punishment.
