Navigate barriers and take actional steps toward equity
The principles of Cultural Proficiency have guided our drive toward equitable schools for decades. Leaders who apply this framework to scrutinize the beliefs and practices that have caused disproportionate harm to children of color and other marginalized students are frequently left with the question: “Now What?”
Using their unique insights and life experiences as Latina superintendents, the authors of Now What? Confronting Uncomfortable Truths About Inequity in Schools present a guide to navigating barriers, managing differences, and creating an actionable equity plan. Readers will find:
a "What Next" guide for leaders at all levels to leverage Cultural Proficiency
a Culturally Proficient Leadership Rubric for promoting growth
an 8-Step Process to help educators gauge status and progress of their equity plan
a discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on educational transformation, as well as heightened awareness of injustice, including the Black Lives Matter movement and mistreatment of immigrant children and families
Cultural Proficiency begins with us. By focusing on our beliefs and biases, and taking actionable steps, we can become more proficient at eliminating barriers.

Because equity and instruction are inextricably bound
Why are equity visits such a critical first step to increasing opportunity and access for our under-served students? Because they take instructional rounds to a new level, providing a powerful lens for investigating the intersections of equity and instruction. After all, how can we possibly deliver equitable learning experiences, opportunities, and outcomes for our students, without first pinpointing problems of practice?
That's where Equity Visits will prove absolutely indispensable to district and school administrators. It details how to combine a strong focus on instruction with explicit, intentional efforts to address systemic inequities. Inside you'll find
A range of data collection activities and tools to target central issues of equity in your school
Clear guidelines on how to investigate the ways instructional practices, structures, and beliefs lead to inequitable educational experiences--and how these are often masked in the day-to-day life of schools and districts
A frank discussion of how to make race and racism an explicit part of investigating and addressing educational inequities
Voices of school and district leaders who have taken crucial first steps to become equity warriors
Recommendations on how to develop policies, initiatives, and practices to confront those inequities
Few dispute that instructional improvement must be a central focus of educational leadership, but for too long achieving educational equity has been absent from the conversation. Here is your opportunity to ensure equity occupy a central spot in data collection and analysis, and be explicitly discussed at all levels of your school or district organization. In short, essential reading and doing for all administrators!
