Leading Social-Emotional Learning to Combat Structural Racism and Unconscious Bias in Schools

To strive toward racial equity in schools, district leaders and educators are doing the important and challenging work of examining both structural racism and unconscious bias. In this conversation with district leaders from Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools (N.C.) and Metropolitan School District Lawrence Township (Ind.), we’ll discuss how district leaders are centering equity in their social-emotional learning initiatives for students and adults in order to improve student outcomes.

Join this webinar to hear district leaders share their districts’ equity journey and approach to incorporating culturally responsive social-emotional learning for students and adults.

This webinar will cover how to:

• Lead adult social-emotional learning to examine and uproot unconscious bias in schools
• Leverage equity-centered and culturally responsive SEL practices to reduce discipline disproportionality affecting students of color
• Analyze student voice data to understand student experiences in schools through a racial equity lens
• Incorporate SEL into strategic planning for the 2020-2021 school year
