Synopsis

See how one school district made cultural proficiency real--and how you can too!

This book tells the story of Ventura Unified School District's successful implementation of cultural proficiency, which opened long-closed doors for marginalized students and returned gains on every key success metric. Most importantly, it will empower you to do the same for your school or district. Resources include:

• A method for evaluating the impact of educational decisions on students' access to learning
• A clearly outlined three-year implementation plan for making your school culturally proficient
• A content-rich companion website that includes templates and forms for implementing the book's suggestions
