Sun, April 14, 1:15 to 2:45pm, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 200, Room 201ASession Type: Symposium
Abstract
In 2019 a number of faculty from institutions of higher education educator preparation programs, non-profit leaders, and K-12 educators began to form a broad coalition of universities, districts, non-profit organizations, research organizations, and philanthropic foundations in Pennsylvania with the purpose of building the capacity of the P-20 system to become much more inclusive, responsive, and ultimately, more just and equitable institutions for BIPOC youth and educators. Members of PEDC and current and former state officials come together to discuss the successes and challenges of its systems-change efforts to increase the number of diverse educators and culturally relevant and sustaining educators in the Commonwealth.
