This exciting new book provides school leaders with a highly effective framework for culturally responsive and equity-driven leadership. School culture is how you lead, how your core values are represented in the work you do daily, and how stakeholders are impacted by what you choose. Author and educator Shauna McGee helps you grapple with the technical and adaptive challenges of developing an effective culture, and you’ll learn how to shape your school culture by applying a culturally responsive lens to your decision-making. Each chapter in this practical book explores a different area of decision-making – including vision, budgeting, instructional programming, capacity building, and use of data. Full of rich examples, takeaway rubrics, and questions for self-reflection, this book is designed for current and aspiring school leaders who want to develop an equitable and student-centered culture.
