Journey of a Culturally Responsive, Socially Just Leader
Newcomer, Sarah N.; Cowin, Kathleen M.
Journal of School Leadership, v28 n4 p488-516 Jul 2018
Principals' beliefs and actions have powerful outcomes in the lives of the students and families they serve. In this article, we offer the portrait of a long-standing principal of a diverse urban school where the student body is 90% Latinx, 65% English learners (ELs), and 87% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. We explore many key practices cultivated during his tenure, including creating a bilingual campus, enacting expeditionary-style learning, and building a strong sense of community. We invite readers to consider important challenges and possibilities along their own journeys toward becoming more culturally responsive, socially just leaders.
