A District-Wide Approach to Culturally and Linguistically Sustaining Practices in the Boston Public Schools
Rose, Colin; Issa, Mwalimu Donkor
Voices in Urban Education, n48 p13-18 2018
Boston Public Schools' system-wide professional development on culturally and linguistically sustaining practices (CLSP) creates consistent expectations for educators to address their biases, build relationships with students and parents, and improve instruction--and gives them the tools to do so. In this article, the authors touch on changes at the district level, with the CLSP framework and supports; the school level, with the example of Snowden International High School, a school that has embraced CLSP; and the student level, with the example of the 10 Boys Initiative.
