Riassunto

Sparking Change to Promote Equity illuminates the skills and practices that campus and district-level leaders of gifted and advanced programs need to encourage and support minoritized and marginalized student success in today’s classrooms.

Designed to empower leaders and other educational stakeholders to build a more equitably represented student population within gifted and advanced programs, Sparking Change chapters offer a discourse on the benefit of incorporating culturally responsive gifted leadership practices to open the gateway toward recognizing, accepting and nurturing each gifted student according to their true needs, interests, challenges and abilities.By dismantling inequitable and oppressive systems that impede student potential, leaders can leverage CRGL behaviors to foster a more inclusive environment within advanced programs, allowing each student to flourish. In the context of the complexities of today’s schools and advanced programs, this book provides recommendations and strategies towards developing an equitable leadership stance that is needing in gifted and advanced education.

Whether you're new to leadership, experienced, or an aspiring leader seeking to advance equity in gifted and advanced education, this book is a valuable resource for educational leaders to become more equitable in advanced level learning.
