    Season 2 Ep. 1 - We're BAAACK!

    Season 2 Ep. 1 - We're BAAACK!

    Better late than never, right!? We were busy running a school during a pandemic, but we have learned a lot and are ready to share. We are back and sharing our thoughts, experiences, and leadership lessons we have learned as leaders of learning. 

    Season 2, Episode 1: In this episode we share our reflections on building a culture and climate in a school with a racial equity lens: creating safe spaces for sharing, modeling vulnerability, identifying and addressing silenced dialogues, and holding ourselves accountable in supportive ways.  Liberation lessons include the importance of setting the stage for courageous conversations, when adults have positive and productive experiences engaging about race they are more likely to engage in those conversations with students.

    Season 2 Teaser: Musings on Addressing Racially Disproportionate Discipline during a Pandemic

    Season 2 Teaser: Musings on Addressing Racially Disproportionate Discipline during a Pandemic

    Join us for some reflections on our work over the past year in this teaser episode for Season 2. 

    In this teaser, we reflect on this unique school year (virtual & hybrid) and what we have done to address disproportionate discipline in our roles.  Some of our liberation lessons include a reinforced emphasis on trusting relationships, strong foundations of culturally-responsive Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (CR-PBIS), restorative practices, teamwork and communication, coaching new teachers, collaborating with parents/caregivers, and, finally, ongoing, intentional & explicit dialogue about race & racialized trauma.

    Want to know more about these concepts and approaches?  Check out our new season where we will dig deeper into our experiences, resources, and strategies for disrupting racialized discipline in schools.
