Holding Power: The Role of Classroom Teachers in Preventing School Exclusion and Dropout, Nov 17

WELCOME to the Race, Culture, Identity and Achievement Series.
The Seminar will bring to Boston nationally recognized scholars, researchers and practitioners-individuals who can deepen our understanding of what it will take to normalize high academic achievement for students of color. This series will create a location for teachers, teacher-educators, community leaders and involved citizens to engage in sustained conversation about how race, culture and identity are implicated in the school achievement of Boston's increasingly multiracial and multiethnic student population.
