#1 We Empower School Communities
We empower principals and school
teams with the resources, flexibility and
integrated support necessary to craft a
school instructional design and school
improvement plan that forms an
individual school identity, helps classroom
teachers respond to students’ strengths
and needs, and achieve ambitious
learning goals for all
#2 We Invest in People
We commit to re-culturing the district
through anti-racist, culturally
responsive teaching and support to
every educator through powerful and
aligned hiring, placement, induction,
professional growth, promotion and
evaluation practices
#3 We Streamline Priorities
We prioritize areas where there are existing
barriers or gaps in access, services and tools/resources that stand in the way of students
meeting ambitious learning goals
Using a set of criteria, we determine where, how,
and to what extent the district brings practices
to scale based on outcomes
We consider re-casting roles to ensure follow
through for African American youth

#5 We Take Calculated Risks
We learn together, at every level,
through accelerated cycles of problem

risk-taking, creativity, and problem solving
- Better use of community voice, influence, and
decision-making
