Proposal Title
Strategies to Strengthen Lesley’s Educator Diversity: Strong Bones, More Cartilage
Abstract
How do we make more deliberate connections with diverse Massachusetts schools and districts? We illustrate, via an interactive map, our school district partnerships, connective relationships, candidates’ field placement opportunities and our graduates’ employment. Not only does Lesley seek more diverse educators, but also primarily white educators need significant experience with diverse learners to meet immediate PreK–12 student needs. We invite your ideas to strengthen our relationship with increasingly diverse schools districts.
