Overview

In 2011, SERC released an important document to encourage Connecticut educators, policy makers, and other stakeholders concerned about educational equity to focus specifically on race. In “Equity in Education: A Transformational Approach,” we outlined five critical elements to addressing systemic racial inequity: Leadership, Professional Capacity, School Climate, School-Family-Community Partnerships, and Teaching & Learning. This new report, the first follow-up to our 2011 document, focuses specifically on the element of Teaching & Learning.
