Despite the best efforts of equity leaders, our schools suffer from persistent inequities. Guiding the Journey to Excellence with Equity is a must-read for anyone who supports professional learning in our schools.

Written with an equity lens, this book:

  • Includes a powerful vignette that illustrates common challenges and solutions
  • Focuses on mental models for managing group energy
  • Is grounded in a systems model for personal and organizational transformation
  • Provides tools for planning culturally proficient learning experiences
