Registration for the Educator Summer Institute and Curriculum Workshop are now open!
2024 Educator Summer Institute
The Educator Summer Institute is a three day workshop offering educators an opportunity to build upon their historical knowledge of the systemic disparities that shape education today.
The Institute aims to:
1) Build a historical understanding of racial construct;
2) Develop strategies and techniques which extend anti-racist practices into the school community;
3) Promote civic engagement and allyship with people of color on issues of racial justice in education.
Attendees will walk away with a plan to address a systemic racial equity issue within their own school, district, or organization. Participating K-12 teachers will earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs). It is strongly recommended that teams of at least three from each school/organization attend, but this is not a requirement.
