Culturally Proficient Learning Communities: Confronting Inequities Through Collaborative Curiosity

by Linda D. Jungwirth, Randall B. Lindsey, Jarvis V.N.C. Pahl

Book Overview

"Cultural proficiency challenges learning communities to go even deeper when inquiring about student barriers to success. This perspective is necessary to truly address the achievement and expectation gaps in our schools. Before we ask ourselves why our students are not succeeding, we must understand and examine our own perceptions and assumptions about them."
--Timothy A. Bias, Administrator
